Should young poets pay attention to what old poets say?

From Poet's Kindergarten

by Elaine P

The tired old poet

ignites the spark

hidden deep in the hearts

of young would-be poets.

He fans the flame

with the breath of his words

until their scibblings become poetry,

traveling beyond the atmosphere.

This question was posted twice. Yahoo does it again!

    In a word yes, but just like anything they are going to do their own thing that's okay too it only allows the craft to mature like an old poet.
