Poets and Their Poetry

Ironic
to think the poem of which I thought little
 turned out to be your favorite.
Perhaps
it's the mood you're in
 and the feelings that draw you out.
I'll try again
to inspire some deep emotion
 that makes you laugh or cry.
Simple
the words that flow
 yet take us in to a memory lost.
Revitalized
alive and thriving in thought
 of simply saying
Most of what matters
 lie in the mouths, the minds, the love
  of poets and their poetry
shared.

What is it we're searching for, DM? Peace of mind, understanding, wisdom? I don't really know but I search. Cool poem:)
