How To Be A Poet Poem by Justin Reamer

How To Be A Poet



Listen to your heart;
Let it guide you through life,
Your Muse, let it be,
As she whispers in your ear,
Transcribe her words onto the page.

Your emotions, those beautiful things,
Compassion, sympathy, pity, joy,
All wonderful, in union, be in touch.
Let your heart speak for itself;
Let your sentiments tell you rightly,
Let your soul be your mentor,
And you, its tutor, in all things beautiful.

Become one with Nature,
The spirit of the world;
Take notice of everything around you,
Ignore nothing pertinent to your cause.
Take nothing for granted—
Anything and everything could
One day become a poem itself.
