For me...

[doofqueen]

This was recently written for me and i wanted to share....

My little whirlwind
rustling the leaves in my heart.
With music from your cave
echoing through the air
I try and stay rooted in the soil.
I hide in the shadow of the forest
the coolness amongst the roots
but like the sun
your rays pierce through the canopy
and open me up
like a flower
blooming towards the light

I told him that was a beautiful poem and he says "is that poetry? i was just expressing my bewildered emotions"

he's a musician and writes music but never lyrics and has never written poetry before.... reckons he cant... as if!

That is poetry. It's nifty, too.

I told him that was a beautiful poem and he says "is that poetry? i was just expressing my bewildered emotions"

And that's the way it is. Most of the 'poetry' I've written is vomit and needs nothing more than a natural extraction of fluids from the body. So be it.
