I am a Poet

I work as a freelance poet in schools. It is rewarding and fun. I love telling children that their words are important. I say, you have a voice, so use it to make connections with others.

I am a poet
My work is my word
I tell the truth
In lies and the absurd

I am a poet

My work is never done
Always another heart
Or mind to be won
 
I am a poet
I make you think
A therapeutic friend
A published shrink
 
I am a poet
I make you seek
I show you vulnerability
Is not weak
 
I am a poet
My work is an art
I enter your head
But live in your heart
