Poets All

You are a poet of his majesties high court I am a poet of the cobblestone street You write sonnets with cadence pure I write rhymes with tempos unsure Your words honor the King's men in war My words honor the downtrodden and poor Your poems are bound in books with silken covers While my writings sometimes fade like fallen lovers Poets we both are as we write by twinkling candle light Seeking words to inspire and bring hope throughout the dark night But alas we shall never meet as we live in far different worlds But we share a bond that is found in a poems loveliest of pearls For the words that we cast reach deep into other's minds And the visions created are indelibly imprinted there for all time
