The Poet

The Poet

Poet gathering courage in the face of fear

Putting oneself in the cross hairs

A critic looks with an awful sneer

Gives a critical opinion and shares

Then there is a person in the corner with a smile

A pleasant look upon their face

It is curious but they seem to like your style

This alone does make a heart race

To ignore the critic you decide

His opinion he may have and share

For him your disdain you do not hide

For to reach one heart is all you care
