Little Poet

The writings of an amateur, Is far behind those of a professional, Lacking substance and without conviction, The fear of being rejected; longing to be accepted. Inspiration is something that cannot be bought, Experience is another that can never be taught, Lost along the way, clueless of what to say, Just holding on to a pen, allowing it to guide my hand. A good-for-nothing slave i am, Not much of a use compared to that of a piece of ham, Laughing at myself as I wrote these words down, Feeling blue just like an ugly clown... Fellow poets, please guide me and show me the way, In future a smooth path for me will then be laid...

Krystel...please stop bothering us busy poets !....lol...you know I'm being silly here Krystel ! Let me say this to you...there is not much it takes to be a poet ! Ink and slip, thats it ! How far you want to take the art of poetry is entirely up to you. Like the fine artist who stops his art instructions at: stick figures ! It's totally in your court. A couple tips though...some like it hot...and some like it not ! Have a wonderful quest dear...and yes you are "POET" ! james
