POETRY MAN - A POEM BY A.H. SCOTT








POETRY MAN 


He doesn't need to be a linguist to win her heart

He only needs to be himself and she finds out what he's all about

Page blotted with coffee rings or character doodles makes her sigh when receiving it from him

It's not the words

But, his heart is the gift he's given her from within

His letters are archived in her memory

From the first droplets of ink that dotted the crinkled page

To that little heart you drew on the end of your name

Poetry man has the right key

It's his passionate pen and he works it on me

My man is poet

Our ink is the tears of joy we share in laughter and desire

Words are the magnet that have drawn us together....

(....a special word of thanks to Phoebe Snow, who's song "Poetry Man" reminded me of the magic of words and how they can make people happy, sad, think, smile & change.....)
