I wonder if I  truly am a poet? I put pen to paper and write some verse. Whatever comes into my headfirst. Does that make me a Poet, I ponder? I consider what i write and what does it mean? Am i truly any good i wonder, is that still to be seen? I write about things I see, try to capture it well, if possible a little story I tell. I write about my feelings for my loved ones present and past. About my marriage, children and grandchildren and how we have a blast. Does this make me a Poet I wonder? I write about daily happenings in the news, some horrific stories, some written to amuse. Am I truly a Poet? What makes a Poet good? Is it clarity of verse Putting others not you first Is it being able to write short burts, Haiku style Long stories that make people forget for a while I guess what i am trying to say Is, do you put pen to paper to have your say? Write some lines in a journal every day? Write some verse, no matter how short? Do the lines rhyme, of a sort? Then welcome my friend You are a Poet You should celebrate and let everyone know it.

AM I A POET?

A question i have been pondering for a while, as i struggle to write anything good.
