Tales of The Poets

Authors and writers, poets of all; 
We are a group of scribers
You can see down our halls. 

On documents, on paper, 
In books that we read. 

Writing our words; 
As if no one is watching
Choosing our letters
Writing poems: Oh, so touching! 

Scribers we are; 
We bring it with style 
Sit down, relax 
Read for a while. 

Writing of words; 
Turning them into songs we do
The writers we are to be
Rings deep in our veins, blue. 

Seeking: searching; 
For the right words to be said 
For the writers to be writing
On fine paper, be them read. 

The lessons we'll read; 
Through the experiences of others
Giving this writing gift
All notions of worth that it covers. 

Writing in poetry: 
Of our demons, we must face
Or about traumatizing events
That unfolds, not to retrace. 

The writings of other poems; 
Of families and friends
Maybe it's about a past love
That we're writing, making amends! 

For the writers, we are: 
We bring it, too, with grace
But I'll end this poetry: 
Maybe you will find its bookcase?
