Poetry Coming, Ready Or Not!



The poets are writing quite a lot,
Each human-written, not robot,
Some poems written on-the-spot,
Pay attention and follow the plot.

Some are quite cold, some are quite hot,
Some tie your heartstrings in a knot,
Some sound quite good, some sound pure rot,
Some started well, then went to pot.

Though some of us don't care a jot,
What poems share is all they've got,
Some leave us puzzled asking, WHAT!?
Poetry coming, ready or not!


Denis Martindale, the 25th of March 2023.
