As Long As

 As long as there are poets

Life will be told

In verse and rhyme

It will stick to your lips

Like powdered sugar 

From those grocery store donuts

It will bounce around in your head

While you stir your tea

You will slurp it up

As you try and scarf a bowl of minestrone soup

While everyone

And their canary

Wants something right now

It will share your comfy hoodie with you

As you sink gratefully into the couch

So, by all means

Sort the mail 

Feed the cat (Or he'll never shut up)

And return that call from your boss

But while you're doing it

Remember

Your life is art 

You are a poem

Rather a beautiful one 

I must say

Never stop writing YOU!
