No Robert Frost
I know that I’m no Robert Frost;
I never claimed to be ‘im,
Yet that is not the reason why
I write a poem per diem.
The writing lets me tap inside
And reach my inner being,
Which, from the outside, no one’s really
Capable of seeing.
It’s gratifying when I get
Some feedback on my rhyming,
Yet that’s not what I need to get
My self-assurance climbing.
It’s when I read back what I wrote
That fills me up with pleasure,
Though I might be the only one
Who sees it as a treasure.
