I love hearing Poets speak It feels like all their words are meant for poetry They dance across their tongues and are filled with So much emotion and deep thought I’ve found As a poet myself That when we talk about things we love And believe in Our words glide over our thoughts and Come out as sweet Sugary Candy of our hearts I feel like When I speak to other poets We have a certain connection Like our hearts are tied together with a string A little red string A string of shared pain Shared love And shared understanding A.J.Busse
