A Poets Talent

Each day I write. 
I have no clue what my pen will ink on paper.
Anything goes when writing poetry.
It's a way many relieve their griefs and sadnesses.
Most poems are encrypted. 
It's the hidden inner meaning we let loose.
Non-poem readers only touch the surface,
leaving the rest behind.

Peer deeper my noble one, peer deeper.
What do you dicipher?
A poet has the ability of imagination, creativity, and symbolism.
I believe poetry should come naturally.
If one has to ponder hard of what to write,
they are not ready.
It should just flow with ease. 
If you cannot write, just sit tight
It will come to you like a breeze.

...Poet's Talent..poem

PIX., As much as everything is one, each thing is still unto itself. Some poems fly out, some have to be dug for. Some on purpose, some quite by accident. A person who feels they must do poetry, is probably a poet, good or bad. As for talent, I don't think I'm alone in believing that the greater part of it, is hard work. Building the fan, to cause the breeze. wcw
