Dreaming
Early this morning the thought hit me that:
“A poet can write most anything he wants to. There are no rules.”
The power of that statement nearly floored me.
I went on to say
Oh, a poet could write most anything he wants to.
Foolish, schoolish, unsound, profound
And the words of his selection, might sway a close election
Or cause an insurrection
A phrase unfurled, might change the world.
Many say Lincoln was a poet. He wrote “Four score and seventy years ago our fathers brought forth upon this continent a new nation, conceived in Liberty and dedicated to the principle that all men were created equal.”
And Martin Luther King, Jr. has been accused of being a poet for his speech I Have A Dream “I have a dream that my four little children will one day live in a nation where they will not be judged by the color of their skin but by the content of their character.”
Yes he started us all to dreaming.
And Bob Dylan asked us, “How many roads must a man walk down, before you call him a man?” and then he told us, “The answer is written in the wind.”
If that isn’t poetry what is?
And if it is true that “A phrase unfurled, might change the world.” Then I,will try.
For I have now realized
That a poet can write most anything.
And I challenge you
To, too.
