Ars Poetica Poem by LeeAnn Azzopardi
Ars Poetica
My poetry is a mystery to me also
I don't know how I write
I feel it isn't any good
That I could make a living
When it gets published, I can shout
On atop of a mountain
And I feel confident and full of joy
But with one rejection that comes
I am falling from that mountain
Sometimes, I think I should give up
Because I am too old to continue
But my Dad's voice comes to me
Saying 'Poetry is yr trade, Lee-Ann '
I wipe my tears and pull up my bootstraps
And continue to write
As nothing can hold my words then
Congratulations Lee Ann for your lovely poem being selected as the Poem of the Day.
Poetry is the power of a poet; poetry is the foundation source of poetic thinking and it's absolutely unstoppable; the stream of poetic diction is imperishable; nice to read your poem again and cograts for being selected the poem as POD
I'm so very happy for you, LeeAnn that your beloved father continues to inspire you from The Great Beyond. His support and encouragement is evident in the soulful poems that you continue to write. Congrats for reaching the Top 100!
The Satire I use is to bring the back of the mirror merged with truth, realities and hidden agenda behind.
Poetry comes from inner feelings. we try and express what we feel. I write 'Satire' poems not the normal satire which believe in using humour to attack a person, an idea or behaviour that you think is bad or silly... NO this is absurd.
I think that's part of the fun of poetry…the mystery in it… even when your the author!
