Well this is a verse full of the real aspirations of a poet Bob; and it flows along with statements which no-one can deny.... poetry has been the means whereby the heart can be exposed on paper and will always be the great influence in any future time too- - with a few words the good poet can build up or knock down and therefore has a wonderful opportunity to reach the reader's mind....... a really first rate verse.......

Very well said my friend...a poet expresses his feelings into his writing. He may hide sometimes the meanings but still he tells the truth in his writings...10+++
And you are certainly heading in the right direction, my friend. Now why need any poet lie About what he can see or feel 'Cos even if he speaks of his dragon You can be sure to him it is real. Irene
Poetry - That exalted window to the soul! Thanks for the reminder.
Wonderful words, heartfelt sentiment - I will definitely aspire to the standards set. S :)
Very well constructed and with each flow each stanza is better than the one before it..... Yes I think I have to agree with you on this, other wise we would not have Emily Dickinson, Sara Teasdale. ect... on and on, as each of them come from within as with most of us....... Very well painted.... Bonnie
...truth has come out here with astonishing verses! Fine! 10/10
Oh MY.. so much truth in this little ditty.. I loved the the timin' and pace of this one.. it was dead on.. Truth be told, that words of few Hand written from thine heart Can open up Pandora's box And tear a picture apart For those of us, of gifted hand Draw our lives out in prose Pictureless formations dance As the art more simply grows Thanks for this Bob *smiles* Wendy
true and good words, bob...those two first lines give a rousing start to the poem...succeeding lines maintain the tempo and pace till the end...enjoyed a lot
Awesome poem. Your words aren't that tender (they're quite blatant) but my, did i swoon! I love how you have contrasted pictures and poems, it's quite clever. Thanks for sharing =)
This is beautfiul, full of wisdom, and so excellently written. I like the pace, flow, texture, rhyme, meter, rhythm, and message. Perfect and meaty.10++++
