Hgarvey Daniel Esquire Poet Rhyme

Your Not a Poet- Hg

I'm not going to help YOU ; I'm not going to comment; Good or Bad
Yes: I viewed YOUR POEM; but if YOUR in the upper Echelon, how sad
What would that do to POETRY? ; What would it do to Poetry's History
A man with no Heart, Expressing no Feeling, Creates a POEM of Mystery
Of a LOVE unknown / unlived; A LOVE  I thought would never to be reborn
Does anyone believe  that todays POETRY is only a Word replacing Scorn
You think YOU speak of Love : of Life, of Reallity ; You do not know "LIFE "
For it is sad, can any of YOU tell me,YOU Have never lost Family or a WIFE
I want to understand POETRY : Before it Drives me " MAD "

December 19, 2010 at 3:27 PM Interesting thoughts. I don't think you have to live through hardships to understand poetry. Instead of experiencing poetry through the world, I experience the world through poetry. Poetry seems to express reality, for me, better and deeper than everyday experiences. It's life connected with eternity.

Constance La France December 19, 2010 at 3:18 PM Interesting write from you, Harry, well, I suppose poetry means different things to different people, for me, I write of my journey, everything, the deaths, the sadness and the happiness are all part of me, the writer, it is the place I go within.. and I have always viewed the world with wonder.. a leaf fluttering is poetry to me, your poem was thought provoking, well done~~
