I'M Just a Simple Poet

I'm just a simple poet I don't write for fame and fortune I don't have anything to sell It's just that I have so many stories So many things I'd like to tell A poem that makes you laugh, cry, think or remember I search my brain, like a fires dying ember I let my fingers do the walking on a dusty keyboard Sometimes I pray to god, please help, oh lord So many ideas, but the best may never come A masterpiece to a few, perhaps junk to some I'm just a simple poet I hope you like what I have to say Time for another poem, today's a new day!

I can relate to your simple style and loved your poem:-) I got criticised for my simple style when i first joined but if folks don't like my style they don't have to read my poems - its simple!:-) hugs jan xx
