My Answer To Dakarai Cobb

Yes we are,
we are the poets of today
and tomorrow,
and we shall be forever.
Let them know that we are just writers
as our grand parents who had the talent we have!
Yes we are,
we are here to educate people
who knows how to read and write,
and those who love what we say and write.
Let them know that me and you,
and those of ours we are just poets.
They have to know what we are,
not to quote us wrong the poets of today
and those of tomorrow.

wow. i am glad that p.d. brought this to my attention. thank you for responding to my poem. it is important to let the world know that we are their creative voice. we say what they want to say in a way that they wish that they can say it. our talent is what makes us so unique. that talent is the source of my "EGO" (I still love you p.d.). God only gave me two talents. Being a great friend was the other one. great write my dear. looking forward to following your work. keep writing.
