I Am Not A Poet


I am not a poet

 

I am no poet

I don’t craft images with my words

Images of hope and healing

 

I am not a poet.

I am a voice ringing in silent echoes and vibrations across the vast_ dark_ empty_ universe.

No I am not a poet

      I don’t speak poetry

I speak of life

 I use words to create

            I am an artist

And poetry is my art

   Poetry is my soul... but

I am not a poet
