Jack, I love everything about this piece. Simple form, yet you infuse such strong sentiment into each line - an ode to poetry and its inspiration, by a man who earns the title of Poet...

Very nice Jack. I like how you touched on the main elements of poetry and its inspiration whether a muse or nature even heaven...Splendid read and write...:)
I simply love the rhythm. Easy to read, yet each line speaks volumes. I also love the repetition of poetry at the end of every stanza. This is quite a bliss, Jack. As always. :x

Thank you so very much Blue. I appreciate your kind words this day.
While I like the stanza separation, a cool idea popped into my head that you could make each of those structured in a diff poetry style (free-verse, couplets etc) Perhaps for another poem on another day. Not sure if I like the repetition of "Poetry" at the end of each stanza... Thank you for sharing!
Ooohhhhhh...Oh, Jack...this is...oh, I just can't find the right word...this is...magnificent, elegant, beyond beautiful...this is awesome...this is absolutely majestic!
I'm saving this one. I'm going to print it out and hang it up...it will keep me inspired.
Oh, Jack, this is poetry in it's purest form, and I love it!
You, Sir, are a genius!!

So I guess that means yuou liked it? :) All kidding aside, your words to me this morning are my inspiration. I can not truly express how it makes me feel to read what you have written about my poem. These are words a poet dreams about, so thank you for allowing my dreams to come true.

Magical...did I leave out magical??? But then, most of your poetry is magical...
Not much to tell about me, I am just Jack, I am a poet, a writer, a musician, a painter, a builder and a dreamer. I live in south Texas but am originally from New Jersey and miss it more and more all .. more..
