I Mourn For the Beginner
Who loves a beginner?
What counts except experience?
In every aspect and field:
Of romance, writing and working
But where do you gain experience
Without a first chance?

Young novel writers
Can only reap in old age
If only they are lucky
To live long like crows

What was that?

Of publishers, critics and guides

Premium Member The Perpetual Beginner Poet
This may come as large surprise,
but I did once take a beginner's poetry class
which I often confuse with my beginner parenting class.

In which we learned good verse
and voice
have structure
pattern
imprinting rhythm
rich metaphoric content
perhaps even epic regenerative story,
assonant bouquet,
climates of hue and cry.

Who would or could a...

Sinner Who Was a Beginner
Sinner Who Is A Beginner

Liar, sinner both
And him to tell truth was loath
Also under oath.

Democrats want promoted
Truth serum around be toted,
Daily done devoted.

Repeat and repeat
Sending out a stupid tweet;
Brains of moron's meet.

Answer to our prayers
Knowing less Trump ever cares;
Morons come in pairs.


Each other support
When they...

Only a Beginner
I am now a novice and only a beginner
And no different than any other sinner
Who should be willing and always know
To God with problems be sure to go.

Give God your all even though on earth
And one day will learn that your worth
Which you should be...

Be loud. 
Speak to those who read you.
Wear classy black and white,

Sing a song with your beautiful and unique rhythm
Dance into ears as music,
Or sit on a page, loved....

Trump Born a Beginner
Trump Born A Beginner

Trump had been  born a beginner;
Prayed at dinner to remain thinner;
He ended being,
Not worth seeing
Is now President and big, fat sinner.

Trump is in another  period of denial;
As President he is constantly on trial;
Habits  bad,
That he had;
Was killed while crossing...

Be a Beginner
Be A Beginner

If you happen to be some sinner,
What does it take to be a beginner?
God is both my beginning and ending
And so to you this poem I am sending.

I am not quite sure where I should start
And compared to God ain't very smart
After I...

Trump Had Been Beginner
Even though Trump had  been a beginner,
And he still always was called a sinner;
Stories told;
New and old;
Caught horrendous fish with his spinner.

Sounds like another Trump story
to me....

Beginner and Poem Was a Winner
Beginner and Poem Was Winner

My first poem had been a beginner,
Which in my mind will be a winner;
Was perplexed;
Then was next;
No longer sinner and I am thinner.

Premium Member Discovering the Realm of Poetry
When we speak today we tend to look at words as a necessary constant with limitations of their own rather than a completely different cosmos in which we have the ability to traverse and discover.

Take a single resident of that realm for example; one individual...
