I can rhyme some word and write pretty verse
I can make you cry with just one word,
but I am not a poet
I can tell of nightmares no-one has
I can captivate you and leave you sad,
but I am not a poet
I can romance your senses with tales of love
I can sing you songs from the gods above,
but I am not a poet
I am a man of questions and deluded beliefs
I am a man always happy, not knowing grief,
I am a dreamer

Aww
I love this
. It's so lovely. I love how you kept each line short and quick. It's awesom ^_^. I thin i must be a dreamer ... I must dream all the time and not pay attention, that's how I end up hurting myself everyday 
. Good write honey.
Love

Poetry to My Response...
With dreamers grief and respond,
A man with captivated mind that is yet to speak,
For a mind has its' own questions unanswered,
You half buried your face with such emotions.
But speak no more, as poetry confine,
To follow a good poetry with an effort to spare,
Yet improvements on your following writes,
Will verdict you that confronts confidence,
Within time of life in happiness,
It will shows sharpness and good reflection and good immunity.
Good luck on your future writes, as the more you write, the more you improve.

Well its a great poem . I love it . thanks for sharing ur master piece with me its a cool poem.very nice. may god bless u.
-
You're very loved lol, you have lots of comments on your stuff. I'm lucky to get one Anyway...this is nice, out of your usual style. Refreshing There isn't really much left for me to say that hasn't been said. I like the fact that you keep things short and simple...it makes it easy to read and understand The repetitive line of but I am not a poet pulls it all together
-
This is really awesome dusty! i love it and it is so true! you are not a poet, you are a dreamer! i just love it all the way through!
-
thankyou for commenting on my poems. this poem is cool but i still think your poems are better than mine but then again youre probaly older than me
-
"I am a man all ways happy"
It should be 'always' not 'all ways'.
Unless, of course, you mean you're happy in all ways. If that makes sense...
Anyway! Nice poem. Really. It's unique, and interesting.
-
Wonderful ^_^ you have a way with words
-
nice
I like the way it emphasizes that you don't consider yourself a poet yet you have the ability to make someone feel so many different things
-
Very nicely done. Beautiful parallelism with the poet and dreamer lines, and the fluidity is very smooth. I like the almost airy feel of the poem, but yet there's so many emotions attached... You have a lovely way with words. Thanks for entering!
-
Wow I really felt this. Good write!
-
Love it. Simple as that
. The rhyming was very steady and fluid, and the lines were memorable. I loved how you repeated the "I am not a poet" line, and ended it with "I am a dreamer." There's a difference, I guess. But you're poem so lies, you're a poet if ever I've read one 
.
GREAT job
diggin it majorly
-
I really like the imagery in this piece. You've done a wonderful job with it.
Good luck to you in the contest.
-
you promoted!!!
so i came!
there's a kind of balance to this.. like your words swing back and forth, slightly playfully but making your point.
yeah, i like this. you've painted a dreamer nicely. 
it makes you wonder what adventures you can take people to.
though i must say.. this bit "I can captivate you and leave you sad," it really reminded me of my recent self...
though it was never the intention.. bah!

coooooool as eva

Wonderful
Ilove this this has so much passion. Exelent you should add this to a contest!
-
So refreshing to encounter modesty! I think the words "poet" and "poetry" are often used a bit loosely. It is inspiring that you have put thought into what it means to be a "poet". After reading this, I wondered if the final line was an affirmation of happiness and satisfaction or an implication of a desire or a "dream" to be more? - either way this piece is a nice read. - NANGALEEMA

Holy Sheep!!

-
i really like this
im not sure why
buts its capturing.
-
"I am a man all ways happy never knowing grief,
I am a dreamer" Are you referring to the saying "Ignorance is bliss"? I guess not, it just made me think of that I wonder what your definition of a poet is, if it's not a man/woman questioning life?
Anyway, interesting.
-
very thought provoking... somewhat bittersweet. I like this.
-
ny dear friend often we poets bring forth our words from imagination and dreams so yes your are firsthand a dreamer secondly a poet well done and many blessings always xx
-
This is very good uplifting spirits in a way im not sure of and can't surly say

I like your running tally of things you can do, and I really love the concluding lines.
Wonderful poem!
