Damnatio memoriae read or we die

On this site reside, poets new others tried, feelings from people that write

One is king with numbers read, Another in hymns to be sung not said

A poem unread is a poem dead, read other's work your muse to incite

A word unuttered kept inside is a poem that's died, a message never spread

Plant your words in fertile soil, with ink your pen oil, stain of words that bleeds

Spill words on the page, with your poems  engage your readers

From life and poets pick your seeds, discarding rocks and unwanted weeds

Planted deep in fertile readers, they'll grow to tall cedars and future leaders

Author's Note

Damnatio memoriae (condemnation of memory) The Roman practice of erasing a person from history by removing any official record of the person from statues or records

I am currently planting my garden which has been very beneficial. My creativity has found a new outlet. Of course poetry is my best love so I hope I won’t be forgotten or erased. I really should pick my own pen up again. Enjoyed reading you Soren. All good wishes.
