It's coz of poets like you
who have sharpened my poetry
from an autumn leaf
you turned me into a poetic soil
manure
no not to forget you all
how you toiled
to pick up a soft blade of grass
to compose a line
like a robot
what an imaginary poetry pen

I can read

a heart expressing gratitude to a master. Yes, sometimes is good to acknowledge those who polished us to become better in our poetry journey.

Beautiful poetic delivery Lovedly!

Hello, Lovedly,
So much of this has a poetic feel to it - the autumn leaf, the soft blade of grass. I understand the reference to a robot, but the poem feels sensitive and personal - far from robotic. Your title is polished, like a gentleman.

Surreal

I do agree that the robot feels out of place. I understand what you’re going for I think. Robotic because we make it look effortless??

I do like this one quite a bit,
Tim
