What The Poets Say

The poets always say,
whatever they want to. 
Brilliant facets chosen 
with a great deal of care.
No stanza’s saccharin.

The poets always say,
it’s written in the stars.
Kismet and wanderlust 
transform us everyday .
In the process we trust. 

The poets always say
complex lines so clearly. 
Fifty cents or a dime,
words will fall in order. 
All that’s needed is time.

The poets always say,
the Muse will inspire you. 
Tears allow ink to flow.
Plant poetry in clouds 
words transform into rain.
