We Are Poets
By Robert T. Davenport
In a world of conformity, we stand tall,
United as poets, we answer the call.
Bound by the love for verses that flow,
Bringing together souls, wherever we go.
Society may judge, may cast us aside,
But our words are a beacon, a source of pride.
We don't fit the mold, we don't belong,
But poetry's fire within us is strong.
Together we rise, a collective force,
Fueled by passion, our words take their course.
Brutally honest, we lay bare our souls,
Inspirational verses, our stories unfold.
We won't let anyone steal our art,
For poetry lives deep within our heart.
Through the highs and lows, we'll persist,
Because poetry's power cannot be dismissed.
So let the world judge, let them say what they may,
We'll continue to write, to create, to convey.
For we are poets, a tribe of our own,
Bound by the beauty of words we have sown.
