Judge Poet Not

They often judge the poet On the words that he thread Some readers formed his silhouette In each poetry that they've read Judge him not at one piece, else you'll be upset Because his pen can laugh then can bleed In every second his mind will reset Truly, you'll never know what's inside his head In the universe of paper and quill He can create truth within lies He can put the soul to nonliving Some of his creations will never die Every poesy made was alive Talked of its own tongue They'll definitely survive Even the poet was long gone... 9/23/2015 Mysterious Aries / Simplyfred Image: Pixabay

We may not know what is in your head, but we get an idea by what you have penned.

Of course every poet would like his words to live on, the same as any other sort of writer.

I will definitely agree with that. For the poet that alone is a trophy.

Loved this. Really nicely penned. I am one of the poets that sit with notebooks all around and every time inspiration hits I jot it down so when I finally get it online I can edit it and make it just right.

Sometimes, I have no time to edit my work... I can definitely relate about inspiration hits and inspiration choose no time and place so to have a notebook at hand is a wise idea... Gladly, now, we have a phone to save lines wherever we go.

I fully agree. People will judge me from my poems but what I have written is just the tip of the iceberg.
