Who Is A Poet?

Just think of it!

If you can feel smell of air
If you can feel pain of smile
If you can feel sound of wave
If you can feel depth of silence

No need of cast
No need of money
No need of religion
No need of certificate

If you have heart
If you have courage
If you have thought
If you have sympathy

Don't fear of state
Don't fear of death
Don't fear of critics
Don't fear of penality

If you can write truth
If you can write secular
If you can write honesty
If you can write anything

Lucky,

Well penned; I love it. I wouldn't change a thing. But if I were to write it, this is how I would have done it.

You Have Life

If you can:

Smell the air,
Feel the pain of a smile,
Hear the sound of a wave, and
Experience the depth of silence.

There is no need of:

Cast,
Money,
Religion, or
Certificates.

If you have:

Heart,
Courage,
Thought, and
Sympathy.

You never need to fear:

The State,
Death,
Critics, or
Penalty.

If you can write, write about:

Truth,
The secular,
Honesty, and
Anything.

This is my interpretation of your poem. How close am I?


Thanks for sharing your inspiring poem.

Cecil

It's too simple...to have grammar be an issue. But with all the simplicity, you do deliver so much truth. We all have the ability to be a poet....iff we just let our pens speak for our soul. Like art, it is subjective...we don't create to be published...we create to share who we are.

You have wisely covered the range and emotion which pertain to writing. You can virtually write about anything that you want. But, some things; those controversial things? Those take courage, wisdom and an understanding of human nature and what it encompasses.
Nice write, well said.

Really a poet is capable of thinking in details than a normal person does!! extremely beautiful poem :)

[Baby Ricochet]

Sounds like a poet to me. Great job

[Holly Mason]

if you have to do it
no matter what you do
you have to write something
when it feels and steals
your thoughts
who is a poet?
great question
everything is probable poetry
but what about ...if we just love words , twisting them just so right.
Taking two meanings and making it make sense
truly enjoyed this piece of writing
sorry I got carried away*)
thank you so made a nice afternoon
