Essense of poetry

Poetry is simple emotion
as it effervesces from anyone
from a poet to a reader
though not all.

Some of my poems have been graded as
GEMS
by a poet yet
another says its crap ..

The poem should tinge the heart of a reader
if the reader cries
reading ones poetry
the poet deserves a credit for his creativity ..

All poetry need not be personal ,
but mostly all poems have a seed/grain
down within ones own soul
deep enough'

What is poetry after all it's emotion
in slower motion
like a Funeral March
at a Royal cremation
very few experience it

So poetry is just a heart beat of a poet
the pulse has to be given by the reader
you are the one to say
whether I am a poet or else!

Love the sentiment...

you made some valid points here. Poetry is the seed of emotion from the poet. The reader determines if it falls to fertile ground or not. ~ Gee.
