A poet strives to be understood; To say something that touches the mind and heart as only a poet can.
A poet always has something they want to say; good or bad only time can make the distinction.
The meaning of what is being said might be as plain as the nose on your face, but it could also be shrouded in imagery and complicated meaning that always speaks when the time is right.

Sometimes a poet may have a lot to say; it need not be important or profound to paint a picture with words that can tell a story untold. What you may write could rhyme from end to end, but don’t worry if it doesn’t because it was meant to be that way.
