There's a poet in Everyone.

poem by: Christopher Russon
Written on Apr 02, 2020

The door is there for the opening
You know we all hold the key
Pour out your thoughts on paper
Your on the road to poetry.

Your words at first may falter
Like a child's very first step
But the more that you keep writing
There will be words you will never forget.

You know you will never regret this
It's the greatest therapy 
And before you really know it
Your a writer of poetry.

There's one thing you should remember 
A poet once said to me
Never be competitive 
When your writing poetry.

There's a poet there in everyone 
His advice I could clearly see
So if you really whant to be one
Then you will master poetry.

Indeed a mouth-watering poem like you deliver to us previously one after another. True description have been elaborated and the correct match of imagery have been portrayed successfully. Wishing you a good luck. (I come back after a long haul of time due to my business.)

Thank you very James for your comment.Yes I feel there is a poet in everyone it is a calling. Saddly not that many people answer to that call .

Nice one Christopher, I just started doodling with lyrics a couple of years ago, never gave a thought about writing them down, If a thought comes into my head now tho', I add to it by the day,, sometimes takes a couple of days, scrap re-write etc. Thank you for the nice comment on one of mine.
