ODE Poem: Ode To The Poets, by Kevin Roberts

Oh yay, yay — to poets we say,
Let’s raise our pens and shout hooray!
Whether you vibe with Maya’s grace,
Or stroll through Poe’s dark, dreamy place—

Poetry speaks when we have no voice,
It soothes our hearts, it gives us choice.
It lifts us up when we are low,
And lets our deepest feelings show.

From ancient Homer’s epic scrolls,
To Rumi’s fire that stirs our souls—
To every poet, near and far,
I honor you, bright guiding star.

So here’s to verse, both fierce and free,
A gift of raw humanity.
Let every stanza, rhyme, and line
Remind us: words are so divine.
