Hi there, my amen is @Josediccus, during my high school days I picked up a muse for writing poems, however I was on the path to being a doctor, however it was really unfufilling, my life revolved around art and spoken words however, since my father was bent on me being a doctors, I sneak out go to poetry gigs, I perform poems like for people without even collecting a single cent.
Im passionate about poetry because it's in Me, it's like food to my hunger, It was like my shadow going around with me, even now, I write poems and just collect a little money to keep up with life, even when it Is not so lucrative in my country I can do something else, it's my life.
If I became an established poet, the world firstly will have another great mind in the art department, it will also add meaning to my life and give me a purpose to go on with, in life.
Wonderful feeling to meet another poet, although I usually need a muse. Where do you reside?
That is great. I should try more poetry. I can write blogs etc, but can't seem to write poetry or song lyrics.
I suppose we have the same problem. I adore song writers and poets as I can't conjure couple of lines of music or poem.
Chuckles. I do poetry too though. I run a blog which promotes poetry and other writings.
I could give you tips on writing one :)
Beautiful.
I write poems too.
You can see a couple on my blog.
Nice meeting another poet.
