A poet is like excavator,
digging through cave like walls of self
even when dark visions come.
A poet is like ballerina,
using words with poetic power
to spin thoughts inside readers mind.
A poet is like hiker,
walking up mountain with stored words
to be sorted out inside quiet.
A poet is like farmer,
planting a crop of words to help grow
a new perspectives for reader.
A poet is like a painter,
creating a masterpiece to excite
conveying visions with their gifts.
A poet is a human,
opening their precious heart
as they share a personal reflection.
A poet is like a pregnant female
laboring to birth a creative work
for the world to see and feel.
A poet is me,
who writes, to tame a raging sea of words within.
Who writes with her passion and heart.
