Irish Poetry Writers Forum Discussion:     How Does A Poet Know?
TJ's comment triggered me to write this... as writers have felt so much in order to put feelings into their artform....

So, I also dedicate this post to our in-house Majestic Writer of Poetry... Our Maggie....


How Does a Poet Know?

How does a writer know just the right words
Just as singers can hit the right keys
How does a lamenter bring forth your heart
And bring the reader straight to their knees.

How does the poet put whole lives in verse
With hardly a stanza laid waste
How do they know how to make your heart grip ye
As if they’d met ye straight face to face.

There’s been many a night they’ve felt it
Many a time tormented in pain
Many a week remained in anguish
As they lay tossing as the night waned.

The pain of love lost, enduring his absence
Tis no stranger to her as she writes her woes
The only thing missing that readers don’t see
Are the tears that were spilled on the prose.

To read their heart’s renting, the message is clear
And filled with the pain that they bore
Causes readers to feel with them and is more than an art
But a privileged peek at their soul.



Thank you to all of you who allow us to see an otherwise hidden part of yourselves...
