Read And Be Read... Poem by Marvin Brato Sr

Reading is an apprehension of the context
no matter how simple or vague the message
as writers especially poets have innate style
of expressions in writing as the common ground
an intuitive urge to relay creative sentiments
depicting the essence of man's earthly existence.

Read and be read...as poet Premji once said
like sort of an advise to encourage fellow bards
as poetry is a mutual appreciation with critique
to share in a collaborative effort of active relation
where all have freedom to make the world as better
abode for humans with different characters and mood.

Read the poems of other poets both classic and modern
time is the gap when metered composition turn free-verse
learn to appreciate or critic as you and I are not perfect
we all need to be read and discover if we have communicated
and understood by the world of varied minds where we dwell
as ordinary residents with extraordinary surge of expression.
