Song of the Poet

*Note - I posted this some time ago on PS and it got POTD, resulting in over fifty comments of support. Social media is a fickle animal, sometimes dangerous. We poets like to imagine ourselves artists, dreamers, even visionaries. In fact, we are simply a microcosm reflecting the larger world around us. A world filled with prejudices, biases, animosities and yes, even hate. It is my sincere hope that the poets of Poetry Soup will put aside underlying tensions and hurt feelings to unite as one voice, one heart. It won't be easy, but with effort it can be done. Agape love is the key. There’s a new sound in the air Can you hear it? It’s a song we all can share Will you sing it? It’s a lyric full of hope Words of peace to help us cope There’s a new sound in the air Can you hear it? There’s a new vibe all around Can you feel it? If you’re lost you can be found Will you trust it? It’s a safe line of defense from harsh words that cause offense There’s a new vibe in the air Can you feel it? (Chorus) I’m a dreamer can’t you see? We are poets you and me Can we sing in unity? Let the music set us free There’s a new sun in the sky Can you see it? Free your mind and don’t ask why Just accept it Let the rainbow guide us home Life is dull in monochrome There’s a new sun in the sky Can’t you see it? (Chorus) I’m a dreamer can’t you see? We are poets you and me Can we sing in unity? Let the music set us free (Refrain and repeat till fade) We’re all dreamers you and me (clap) And we share one family tree (clap) Let’s agree to disagree (clap) Sing in perfect harmony (clap)
