The Journey of An Adamant Poet

It is not long time ago I did not understand poetry 
And could not write proper poems in proper forms 
Yet i kindled a fire to be a famous, renowned poet 
So, I kept posting and did not know those pieces were nonsense 
I was a new comer and that was my trying period 
I understood that but the so called intellectuals did not 
They made fun of me and termed my writings gibberish 
Had they not forgot that one day they were too a novice 
They could not leave such bad comments upon my poems 
They broke my heart but i was not broken by their crap 
I took writing as a challenge and later I proved them wrong 
The job has not finished yet, I know, I need improvements 
As my work still under huge avoidance and negligence 
Spontaneously till date my works could not fetch attention 
And praise, admiration from friends and the men of letters 
That could not be many reasons but my intrinsic quality 
I know I lack and I beg pardon for bearing and tolerating me 
But you know I am a man of promise and I never perjure 
Be patient, next time I will come up with worthy writing for sure.

Who is to truly say what is and isn't good poetry? It becomes refined the more we write, it is an expression of you. I enjoyed your write, keep it coming. DMB

This one seems pretty worthy to me. Your humility is to be admired. We should never stop learning to find better ways to express what's in our heart. Just write what you feel and think, Wahab.
