The Poet Man --updated

THE POET MAN

Once I was a poet man.
I wrote in minor key
the melodies
my soul would sing to me.

But now the voices are stil
and silence falls heavy
where all will is gone.

I've said it all and some.
It is done.
No longer cliché
of the day....

I don’t hear the music
play
anymore.

"but now its voice has grown still
and silence is the quiet will
that plays its song of charm to me"

Like this one a lot
my freind

Thank You!

I like your rendition better.

thanks, Steven.

A lovely birdsong for today,
but the bird will sing again another day.
Just you see.
