You Poet - Be Blessed! Poem by Adilson Pinto

Why don't people love poetry
As they love articles and romances?
Why ain't poetry so popular?
Some people say that poetry is just
For genial writers and readers!
So should I understand that there are
Just a few geniuses in the whole world?
Yes, they say, poetry is only for an intellectual elite
Not popular, not for people without sensitivity!
So should I understand that there are
So many people without sweetness, with a hard heart?
They say also that poetry is just for dreamers!
So should I understand that there are
So many people without hope?
My God! Blessed be all the poets if these people
Are saying the truth!
What a wonderful persons the poets are! ! !
