Am I the poetess yet?
Do I fit in well?

The world of poets to tell
That I can write as well

Although it's tough still
To write at will

With hands pretty still
With the mind that twirls

To play with words
Like the jugglers whirl

Like the big wigs swirl
In this literary world

It has been cuts and curls
Like the barber's scissors

It's like the butcher's knife triggers

To give stray thoughts the skills

In writing at my will

But yet I like a girl
Would compose few poetic pearls

To tell this literary world
That could some hearts turn

The pages of their lives
Down the memory lane hurls

Yes! I am that poet girls.
