别总以为只有用文字为表现工具的，才是诗人。不是的，还有许多诗人的，而且可能到处都有诗人，都可能把诗表现得很好。
到处都有诗人。不管写的是什么，怎么写，只要是诗，有诗意，能使人感动，引起读者的共鸣，都是好的诗，其创作者都是诗人。
音乐家是用声音为表现工具的诗人。画家是用色彩、线条和图案为表现工具的诗人。舞蹈家是用舞姿为表现工具的诗人。农夫是用犁锄为表现工具的诗人。渔夫是用渔船和渔网等渔具为表现工具的诗人。工人是用铁锤和锯子等为表现工具的诗人。……
当然，这宇宙间还有许多许多诗人在写诗，譬如男人、女人、老人、青年、小孩等，譬如商人、教师、学生、军人、建筑师、裁缝师、铁匠、船员、司机、行旅等等；写出来的诗则可能是动物、植物、一件事、一个活动、一颗果实、一座山、一条溪流、一面湖、一汪洋……。
到处都有诗人，不管写的是什么，怎么写，只要是诗，有诗意，能使人感动，引起读者的共鸣，都是好的诗。
所以，别总以为只有用文字为表现工具的，才是诗人。不是的，还有许多诗人的，而且可能到处都有诗人，都可能把诗表现得很好。
