Wanted: A Poem Catcher

~ Frank Solanki

Somebody catch me my poems

They’re all over the place

They’re everywhere they shouldn’t be

Oh it’s such a disgrace

…

They start off from my head you know

And run around as they please

They’re even harder to catch I’d say

Harder than a swarm of bees

…

I chase after them all day you know

So often I chase in vain

In the morn’ they come to life

Then at night they run again

…

You see I really need your help right now

Won’t you help me for a while?

I’ll pay you handsomely I promise

I’ll pay you with a smile

  1. I simply loved this poem. It’s like you have written this for all the poets here. I feel the same – poems come throbbing, come hurling, come breathing, come bathing all over the place and many times at moments when you have no pen or paper or your mobile at hand.

  9. May be I am a poem catcher
    For long I have been a poem lover
    Your poems swarm in my night
    In the morn they vanish in a flight
    Now that I think for a while
    Your poem is your smile

    Wishing you Happy Holidays
    Have fun
    🎉🍾🎄🎅🎈

  11. Of course I will help you. 😊. Always have your notebook hand and then stay with calm in your mind.
    The bees will be attracted and settle on you, you just take dictation.
    Can I have that smile now?
