An Instrument Of Poetry Poem by John Knight
An Instrument Of Poetry
Oh make me an instrument an Instrument of Poetry
I'll write with my hands - and exclaim
Oh make me an instrument an Instrument of Innocence
I'll write with my hands - again and again!
I'll write you a love song a Love Song in Poetry
I'll write with my heart - the refrain
I'll write you a love song - a love song of emotion
I'll write with my heart - again and again!
For we are a symphony - a Symphony of Poetry
Who write with our souls - to proclaim
For we are a symphony - a Symphony of Harmony
Who write with our souls - again and again!
We are all Poemhunters - true Lovers of Poetry
We write with our minds to Praise or Distain
We are all Poemhunters - Creators of Excellence
Who write with our minds - again and again!
This poem is dedicated to all the lovely Poemhunter Family. We don't mind a little criticism but please let it be positive and savoured with love. We all need each other in our quest to create the PERFECT POEM!

A respectful way of thinking. You don`t just speak about love, you are love yourself
Well said John, Instrument to poetry requires constructive criticism, kindness, and at times patience. We all come from a different place with different life stories and with various level of language ability. No one at least I can speak for myself enjoys being thrown under the bus for failure to meet the requirement necessary to write a poem that meets all the rules and regulations. As for me, English is not my first language however, I love the language and respect it enough to be true to my work. Now, in doing so I have upset many and will continue to do so. That said, I am in no place in my language ability to argue nor defend my work based on rules and regulations. So as John suggested let us all allow each other to crawl before running :)
A well- crafted poem...Indeed everything is involved in writing a poem: the mind, the muse, the heart, the soul..thanks for sharing.
a good done! a harmonious Instrument of poetry… our keys are the letters... we are the words sitters... Thanks For Sharing! 10++++++++ Enigma. with LoVe&PeaCe
