Not only does poetry matter, its vital. Thats the truth that they will whisper in your ear. The world would be a sadder place without verse...not a place I would be happy with. Then again, I'm a poet so I'm biased. Thanks for sharing.

Comment from Tina Crute
This is awesome and I like the theme that poetry is truth. It does whisper to the reader, but I never thought of describing it that way. This is a good entry for the contest and it's one of those poems that you remember :-)

Outstanding nonet, Chip. I read it a few times and enjoyed it more each time. What you say about truth in poetry strikes a chord for me right now. That's exactly how I'm experiencing it - and learning a lot about myself.

Comment from rhonnie69
HELLO CHIP: Yes. As far as I'm concerned, poetry does matter. I have been called a poet, by readers of poetry...and by poets. I don'k know that I am a poet. But I do know that I put all of me in everything that I write. My readers say that they like what I write. My writing isn't only what I do...it is what and who I am. When my readers say that they like what I write...they're saying that they like me. Therefore I feel responsible for writing wholesome entertaining writing that my readers can enjoy...and can learn something worth knowing from what I write.
Thank you for sharing, Chip. Your work is good. You are good too. Cordially: rhonnie69.

Chip,
A very interesting look at this topic. So, you're saying that if you ASK a poet his take on the importance of poetry there's a good chance you'll just get gobble-de-gook. But if you read his poetry, you may be enlightened. Nice concept! Thanks! Good luck!

Comment from Roxanna Andrews
I seriously doubt my poetry matters because it is mostly silly, but the great poets through the years have had a great impact. I'm not an expert on this type of poetry, but this is well done and I do hope you do well in the contest.

Hello Poet, you've penned a nice nonet for the contest with the correct syllable count and form. You also ask a thought provoking question in your poem. I suspect you will get a variety of responses.
