Today I got called a Poet
It felt thrilling to think
That someone considered me one
That I may have written something
Meaningful enough to someone
Like my favorite poems are to me
I could tell that they meant it too
Although it felt too good to be true.

Today I got called a Poet
And the fifteen year old who once
Dreamt of becoming a writer
Felt seen like never before
She wanted to hug this person
And thank them for finding her worthy
Of being called a Poet.

Today I got called a Poet
And suddenly I feel like maybe
I could be a Poet.
