Fellow Poets
You don't know me and
I don't know you.
So we're cautious not
To give away too much.
We give out vague
Descriptions, only letting
The other get an inkling
Of what they're seeing.
All you know of me is
All I have shown you.
The same is said for me.
Misconceptions are bound
To happen, but don't get
Me wrong, I'd like to
Meet you. Dead or alive.
Pick your brain, perhaps
See from your perspective.
I never realized until
Lately what passions,
What inspirations I could
Find in your works. Like
Touching the smallest parts
Of your soul. The lessons
You've taught me, the
Things you've told me, I'm
Grateful for every word.
like it
like it. i must admit that "dead or alive" really bothered me. i like getting to know the poets on this site and have my established friendships and relationshijps. we talk about poetry and a little bit of our personal lives at times in private. i don't want to meet or talk to a dead person. i want you alive to pick your brain, carry a conversation, push each other's perceptions, inspire you to write, and explore the gift of poetry together. by the way, i'm not meeting anyone from online in person, but the friendship about these amazing poets is real.
That is a very sweet thing to
That is a very sweet thing to write. Your writes are very kind and your appreciation and respect for human kindness comes through loud and clear. It's nice to read.

"No", she replied, "but I have experienced it. "
Please do excuse me Mr Diamond... but
Please do excuse me Mr Diamond... but I am no poet.I write as ..oh well!! coz nothing better to do.You've paid due respect to all true poets.Great poets leave their works behind to be enjoyed by millions after their passing away into oblivion.Moreover,writing flawlessly and vividly is a gift from above(with no malice towards creative writing courses offered on the globe) Some debts can't be squared off Sir. May God bless you.~ Your humble friend PEye~

"Well, it's love, but not as we know it."
I love how heartfelt this is.
I love how heartfelt this is. It's beautiful how you say that we are careful not to give away too much while also baring your soul, saying exactly what you are feeling. This resonated with me very strongly, I'm glad you found this poem again.
