The Value of Poetry

Words are amazing, stuck in our heads all the time they look for a way out we are their channel always its door so turn the key, find what it's all about Whatever our direction in poetry form follow your head, be bold, be strong trust in your intellect to show its route take its hand to lead, it'll do no wrong No one can put value to one's words even you may not think much of a write but that piece someone may think it's so cool exactly what they need to hear in their right Sometimes something may be so simply sweet professionals may write it off as so childish but remember that piece has its exact place there's a menu somewhere to fit your dish As everything in life has a value so does our words we pen together someone somewhere will love it to them, it's their precious treasure (Can we really put a value on our poetic words? to some, it may be pretty average but to another, it could change their life so keep spilling the ink!)

This is so true! Poetry is my therapy, I don’t know what I’d do without it. If you can aid or inspire someone else in the process it’s a bonus. Really enjoyed this :-) x

Thanks again Elaine, yes indeed poetry is our therapy at getting out what's lying deep inside us and a bonus when it inspires others. So good to hear from you, I'm up spending week in Scottish highlands, relaxed and enjoying the autumn colours of nature. Poetry hugs, Gordon
