I love reading poetry even as a child. I will always find a quiet corner to read my favorite book, a collection of William Shakespeare's Sonnets. Poets are special people to me, because in my mind they are specially gifted with the power to weave words that inspire a sensitive soul to reach deeper into their inner self. That's what poems are to me, not written to be analyzed but to inspire without really knowing why, that's the beauty of it.
Indeed I'm not calling myself a poet, but one thing I'm sure of ; my heart will always be that of a poet.
I thank you all for welcoming me to this beautiful site.
Cheers,
Bubbleburst
