Wish I was a poet too


The beauty of being a poet 
Although you don't really know it
That by writing your words in rhyme
You'll be remembered past your time

As readers will see what you've seen
Even though it's been all a dream
When they read your words from the start
And may then feel your beating heart

There'll be birds soaring in the trees
And scent of flowers on the breeze
There will be good times and the bad
They'll be laughing when they'll be sad

Most of all there will be that time
When their tears will fall at your rhyme
You've made them feel just as you do
They'll say "Wish I was a poet too"

  7. I wonder too... if the words will last past my death... if it will be the rhymes or something else.
