Not a Poet

I wrote a book of poems
Trying to tell stories
Of loves and lives
But I don’t think I am a poet


I don’t write in codes
Hidden depths and hidden meanings
Is not my style
I just write about fields and roads


I wrote a book of poems
But I don’t think I am a poet


But I write in rhyme
And hope it works
When I tell a tale
On the vagaries of time


I wrote a book of poems
But I don’t think I am a poet


So, I hope my poems
Please the reader
And at time touch their heart
But I don’t think I am a poet.
