' A Grown-Up Child Poem by Tsira Gogeshvili

' A Grown-Up Child

Rating: 3.1


A poet is a grown-up child, anyhow,
He couldn’t compose, otherwise…
A poet is an adorer of queerness,
A bit - willful, a bit - precise…

“Hunting is a game of chance, ”
We’ve forgotten that well-known phrase,
And we must remember that kids
Are forbidden to play such games.

Tsira, well written, though, in my opinion, a bit gently. Oh! If I weren't a real kid, I'd never write the nonsense you read. Thank you.

'A poet is a grown-up child, anyhow, He couldn’t compose, otherwise…' Amazing, these two lines are enough. Tsira, actually you write very well, compose poem with deep thoughts. On the other hand, you follow the idea of 'small is beautiful' that I like most. I love your poem with pleasure and this one also. Cheers, +++ 10 +++

Perhaps poets retain some of the innocence of children and feel free to say what they thinks M lady
