PAUL COLVIN - Poets' Minds

A poet is like the artist
With a blank canvas
He or she can be anyone
Or anything.
Old or young, a child perhaps,
A lover, warrior, hero
No boundaries set
No restrictions exist
Be who you never were
See what I don’t
Do not as I say
But do as you see
You are the artist
Your brush is a pen
Write from your mind
You, you are the poet
And just for one verse
I set you free.
