if singers sing

if singers sing
and writers write
then it must be so
that poets poe


i love to poe
each single word
comes from deep within-
not so absurd


i don't do wash
nor run and shop
i just keep poeing
until i drop


if singers sing
and writers write
then it just makes sense
we poets poe

This is cute and creative, Faith

I enjoyed this poem for it's bouncy, light sort of humor. Lots of poers around her eh? lol I found the line "not so absurd" a bit awkward as I paused to read it more than once. Other than that a certain pleasure :) Mark

Great one Faith

It's a great feeling when you want to write or sing and it all just comes flowing from your head and gives you great pleasure. I love it. Xena Quote: Science is what you know; philosophy is what you don't know. - Bertrand Russell
