Let It Flow - Contest

Your going to write poetry
do so with your soul.
Take a deep breadth.
Breathe out the words as a whole

Your inner self will be revealed
more than you can guess.
Write as it enters your mind
or it will be lost.

Don't strive to be a Tennyson
or Wordsworth and such.
Look around you 
at the things you love to touch.

Write  simply 
don't force out the words.
You will soon become a poet
maybe that sounds absurd.

Let it flow, let it flow
the magic will be weaved.
May not be a masterpiece....it!s
something you alone achieved

Seren, I love the down to earth approach you used in this poem. It tends to make us poets, or wannabees, stop and listen. Thanks for posting.
