Poetry Is a Song of the Soul

Poetry is like opera to me.
It brings some, to your very soul’s gate!
Some poets only pen for a witty, rude
fast laugh.
I don’t think life is a bowl of chuckling human 
guffaws and 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!
True friends are not like a bag of apocryphal popcorn!
Spitting philosophical gems like a dunce, all over a college dorm,

All kinds of varied, creative poets here!
Some write way too long, some too short.
Then, there are also, humble deep philosophers.
Find a few who make you purr.
Those that make your heart, 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 brings me to tears.
Cliches as comments should be
banned.
Empty and cold in this poet’s heart and 
hands.

Tom Cunningham Date: 3/9/2022 6:00:00 AM Poetry affects you in many ways, it can make you think, laugh or cry and if it does any of those you've succeeded in writing a poem. Tom Login to Reply Panagiota Romios Date: 3/9/2022 9:09:00 AM How true...,also pass on cockeyed positions and Blame. The worst thing we can do. Listing names will not work List names of telephone numbers of each company.you have issue with. This is powerful. Let other poets know. Change comes from us. You can be powerful that way! I have gotten ads off of TV insuring the handicapped. It took months but it was removed. We have power over companies and government goofs. Name calling is ineffective. Pangie
