Am I, a poet?A Poem by Patrick O'NeilSometimes, at strange hours,
I get this flash, of inspiration.
From nowhere, it comes in fast
lasting just a moment.
Its almost, supernatural.
Staring in the heart,
taking over, the mind.
Then moves into my hand,
compelling it, to write.
Am I a poet? Don’t think I am.
Don't even know, what that means.
A poet, use big words and clever repetition.
Telling big stories, with grandeur.
I only have a simple message.
Child like, but clear.
Am I a poet? Don’t think I am.
Don't even know, what that means.
Inspiration, is the ink,
the body, just a pen.
And the words?
Have been in existence,
long before, i wrote them.
They are just, echoing,
truths in rhyme, write by
God's hand,
throughout time.
