I see

I went to see you today.
I recognized you instantly.
Exactly reconciled
to my minds eye.
It is an uncommon
occurrence.
But I didn't need
to go there.
I knew.

I did it
for some small
recompense
In the recess of
my mind.
I saw the art
in your heart,
A passion as much
As my own.

But you are
for the science of it
And I,
for the serendipity
of ideas.

I saw your
wall today,
stacked up
a thousand plus
rows high.
I figured
if I had seen it,
it would have
Given insight.

I didn't need to.
I knew.
ideas grew
so prolifically and well
They sprung up
everywhere I went.
I saw your face today.
I recognized it instantly.
And you saw me by name.

I get the idea

very compelling, needs a little edit though, from your bio, I know you're not intereseted in those details, I'm not that great at structure either... so write on.... see I ended a sentence with a preposition... the poem you wrote is similar to one I did

enjoy

Hey thanks

Well I'm officially going to change my bio turns out after talking to beaves I believe I am a reformed grammarianist is there such a word? Fluke. But yes good poetry begs good understanding and I can see some gramatical errors for sure. With dyslexia I can never be sure thank good ness for spell check but my iPad forces me to write online. Happy to hear of any corrections and I've given it a bash so thanks :) any help is welcome ;)

If you are going to create,

If you are going to create, take the time to make it the best work you are capable of producing. Too often, we sell ourselves short and fail to allow our work to fully bloom by dashing on to the next poem. Sometimes, we write just to get the thought out, and there is nothing wrong with that. It is very cathartic. However, sometimes, we bring forth something special that deserves the hours or days or weeks required to make it all that we possibly can.
