Get Me A Poet
Get Me A Poet
All my life,
I have craved for Art:
Art as a spoken word;
Art as an expression.
Now, I have concluded:
Of what will soothe me
And what will gladden me?
Get me a Poet!
In a Poet lies words of goodness.
In him lies rivers of flowing smoothness.
His aura begets unending words of playful verity.
His tongue is like a tap that runs beauty and eulogy.
I want a lovey-dovey relationship.
Let his love for me make him paint me like a dove with his writings.
Let him concisely describe me till I am swept off my feet:
Let his words coin and uncoin riddles about my being till I am bewildered.
Let there be no vain repetition of words till I am saddened.
Get me a Poet!
My heart yearns for a dexterous ink man
Who will set his papyrus on fire with my ode?
Let him be a decent person but let him be gay with his ink.
Until I have him will I keep longing?
Get me a Poet and save me from being a worrywart.
