we give the poet words to use
and simple thoughts to wake his muse.
penning a dream, as we know it,
words to use, we give the poet.

writing feelings, with pen in hand.
opening minds to understand;
love, hate and emotional dealings;
with pen in hand, writing feelings.

poets are born with a special gift
that gives the readers heart a lift
and with a pen they can adorn
with a special gift, poets are born

a poets’ muse can really storm
If he writes his poems, in a form
forms are tools for poets to use
can really storm a poets’ muse

like a sword, is a poets’ pen
piercing the heart over again
with forms and musings he’ll record
a poets’ pen is like a sword
