For Readers, Who Make Me Feel Seen

I write and publish,

sharing my knowledge,

putting time and effort

which I sneak out from parenting

and managing household chores.

It's not cakewalk or cup of tea,

but a decision, with a purpose.

I desire reads, and sure cents,

but are there many supporters?

Nope, you already know,

how unseen it feels.

I am sure you have similar goals,

to be acknowledged,

to earn a few bucks,

writing money is sacred,

yet we don't do onto others,

what we want for self.

But there are kind souls

who know how to support.

They are necessary fuels

which let my writing vehicle

keep moving.

I will read as many articles as I can,

written by strangers, if the topics resonate,

But while reading those who engage,

I will feel tenderness, have a smile

Can you blame me?

If you want, I can also shape this into:

• a free-verse poem

• a Medium reflection

• a short manifesto for writers

• or a softer, more lyrical version

Just tell me the direction.
