A Happy Poet Poem by Ben Gieske

Ben Loved your poem...Because of love's inconsistency I find it most difficult to be a continual 'Happy Poet'...cold reality has a way of stealing my heart's song. You, keep smiling and dare to be happy! Dorothy

Good time and place for a poem like this...keeps the smile on. Poetry IS fun...good to read this and good to remember it.xxElysabeth

thanks. :) I need to be reminded about this sometimes. lol..

I know just where you're coming from Ben. It's all those words that demand to be shared and arranged, somehow, like a puzzle. And all those playful ideas that need to be aired, and given a voice - just because. Yes, you go on being a happy poet. love, Allie xxxx

Yes, i agree with you here, Ben..away with seriousness. Hope i can make a happy poet in me in the future..thanks for sharing, Ben hugs, Meggie

i dig this.. and i totally agree.

Happy poet, that you sound to me...

yes, you are right, Ben..just be happy, enjoy your works, so that the readers will also enjoy..A poet is also kind, not rude..This is great, Ben. I love it Love and hugs, Meggie

Ben, I love writing silly poems as a happy poet but too often my heart is sad though my mind wants to play.... Dorothy

A grand aspect of a romantic poet. As Samuel Johnson said 'to a poet nothing can be useless'. Happy thoughts, sensible feelings feeling, nice humour always make a good poem and a very good poet. Though I defined a poet in a different way in my WE DEFY BARRIERS, which is akin to my country where a poet has to be socially sensitive and must try to do something explosive, within his might.I enjoyed reading this poem, especially the tone, so mellowed and the words so smooth to suit the subject.
