Poetry Is a Fruit

in mind's field thought's seed
                                      words sprout there from
                                        knowledge's manure
                                       trunk's concept's sum

                                           subject's tree
                                      branches are its lines
                                  whole beauty's the wisdom
                                   leaves design with aligns

                                        poet's a gardener
                                         poetry's a fruit
                                      readers are tasters
                                  lovers always give salute

I came across a prestigious list of the top 100 most published poets here and I am not surprise. Your quality indeed goes hand in hand with your quantity. I'll check one or two more of your works because this has given me a unique satisfaction. I give you a handshake of a definite 7!
