The Poets Heart
The Poets Heart
Inside the heart of a poet.
There lives undeniable hope.
There’s beauty in almost everything.
It helps the poet cope.
There is faith in their tomorrow.
Mixed with overwhelming love.
The things that shine, shine brighter.
Like the moon and stars above.
No matter what the future holds.
What events might be in store.
The things that other people see.
The poets heart sees more.
The grass is a little greener.
Love blows freely in the wind.
When a tree is strongest.
Is when it’s strong enough to bend.
Heartaches and disappointment.
Find a faster way to heal.
By writing words on paper.
Describing how they feel.
It’s unfortunate but it happens.
When a poet’s misunderstood.
Words that are familiar.
And intended to be good.
Instead of drawing people closer.
It sends them on the run.
Mention the word forever.
Their like a bullet from a gun.
Edwin C Hofert
