FOR I LOVE THEM ONE AND ALL

There are so many poets
I remember and recall,
too many to single out just one,
for I love them one and all
as they touch my heart
in such a variety of ways,
tugging at my emotions
and captivating my days.

I love the poets of the past
whose eloquent words
endure and last
well beyond the time
they wrote those words
that flowed through quill and pen.

And I love the poets of the Now
who reach into their emotions
and how they pour their hearts
and share their most inner thoughts
with me as I read their words
in this modern cyber way.

I can’t thank them enough,
all the poets who have passed
through my mind
and across my heart
as they’ve shared their words
and their emotions
and their laughter
and their tears with me
in their words I’ve read
throughout the years.

So thank you,
One and All,
for being friends of mine
for it’s an honor every day
to read the words you share.
