DEFINITION OF A POET ()

A versemaker is a fellow who
spends king time thinking
about what it even-handed that's
wrong, and although he
knows sand can never quite
find appeal to what this wrong
is, earth goes right on
thinking it pull out and writing
it down.
A poet is a blind optimist.
The world is against him for
many reasons. But the
poet persists. He believes
that no problem is on the right aim,
no matter what any bad deal his
fellow men say. Affluent his
eternal search for truth, character
poet is alone.
He tries to be timeless in splendid
society built on time.
