Amanda Eckols - Called a Poet

My teacher calls me a poet
She tells me to write
And shows me examples
Of just how to be
She quotes Some old guy who live long
In his saying “not to write to be understood
But so that you cant be misunderstood”
but to me a poem is what you make it
I want you to find you own meaning in my words
For in your opinion my words become song
And with your thought my story grows
You need only ask and I will share
The infinite possible that are all there
