Panagiota Romios Poet Rhyme

Poetry As Moving As Opera To Me

Poetry is moving as an opera to me.
It brings some, to your very soul’s gate!
Some poets only pen for a witty fast laugh.
I don’t think life is a bowl of chuckling human gaffes!

Some will never comment to you.
So what? 
Make this not a popularity zoo, poetry is not akin to showing off
brand new shoes!
That is called “egotitistical blues!”

True friends are not like a bag of apocalyptic popcorn!
Spitting philosophical gems like a freshman, all over a college dorm.

All kinds of poets show poetical talent here!
Some write way too long,  some only write short.
Then, there are also, humble deep philosophers.
Find those few who make your heart purr.
Those that make your heat in your blood stir!

Read well known poets each day.
This is a must_ a learning foray.
These are just things I learned, since being here.
Beautiful poetry really brings me to tears.

Cliches as comments, meaningless, should be 
banned, sounding like empty tin cans...roll both
Empty and cold in this poet’s heart and hands.
Be specific in comments or comment not.
Don’t reply as “ I am in a hurry” snot!

Comments are surely not homework, that’s a sin.
Reply with your soul,this is not a children’s game to win!
“Oh, but they won’t read me, if I don’t comment?”
Then become a sincere soul, a dazzling, artistic grommet!

Lisa Ricci November 5, 2021 at 6:38 AM Hello Pangie - Your message is straight forward and true. From the onset of joining any membership I read review and comment not because I have to but because I want to. And yes, I comment on an entry that moves me or an entry that has meaning or a message. I still stand by that to this day. Have a wonderful day. Keep enjoying poetry and poetrysoup.

Joseph P. DiMino November 2, 2021 at 8:03 PM 'Poetry is moving as an opera to me. It brings some, to your very soul’s gate!" I do agree, that poetry, of all the forms of writing, is closer to spirit -- our soul's manifestation on paper. Lots of interesting observations, Pangie. Enjoyed the read.

Eve Roper November 2, 2021 at 6:19 PM I enjoyed your write, You made my evening. I got a tickle of this. I am truly one of those I don’t know what to say,why I don’t know. Maybe it’s because I don’t understand the readings of in between the lines. I am more of tell me how it is not color it with paint. There’s not many that read my work either. But it’s OK those that do inspire me And you’re one of them for that I thank you.But I do enjoy your reads. Hugs Eve
