I think of myself as a poet

While others might not I know it

I write everyday

About the things do

Whether it’s riding a canoe

Or tying my shoe

Riding a horse

Or playing on a golf course

Whether people like it or not I think of myself as a poet

And I know it

I love writing poems

I would really like people to know em’

I love readings books

They are like fish hooks

They grab on to me

And don’t let me flee

I am a poet

And I know it

I love Edgar Allen Poe’s writings

They are great site to see

Especially when your trying to flee

From the crowd of people

Saying I’m not a poet in upheaval

Yet no matter what they think I am a poet

And I know it.
