My Friend and Mentor
I met my friend almost two years ago
Have no idea now, how it actually went
All of a sudden we started talking
About our poetry and personal events
He told me about his fascination for Africa
And about France, of which his ancestry came
About his fights for ‘human rights’ among people
He gave me links to publish poetry, my aim.
Ex-newsletter editor (for 7 years) for Dawn
Creator of poetry in various styles.
Rhymed verses he prefers and literary short stories
Including science fiction, which is also on his mind
Villanettes & sonnets and couplets in rhyme
An American Poet, who is quite renowned
In ‘Writer's Digest top 100’, he excels
Noted in ‘Who’s Who In America’ & ‘…The World’.
He can look cool and a little stubborn
But in reality he has a heart of gold
Cannot stand people who are not honest
Or commenting on poems, being rude and bold
For him a poem needs to begin in delight
Made perfect with some wisdom at the end
He teaches me how and I learn from him
I welcome his support; he is my best friend.
