Poetry Is About Quality

Poetry is a question of quality Not a numbers game or quantity Poetry is about deep meaning Of the words used by the Poets Who are in reality true Prophets Don't get me wrong, don't wring My neck and misinterpret my analogy It's not about the history of the story It's about the reality of the story. Poetry Sends messages in a sophisticated way Poetry is everything that you see every day Everything that you think or dream about Poetry is the inspiration received from a Superior Being Poetry is about the sun, the moon, the rain, the drought Mother Nature and the boxer who died senselessly in the ring Poetry is about love, freedom, respect and justice Poetry is about intelligence, music, lyrics and peace Poetry is everywhere. Poetry is about the landscape Poetry is about the poor prisoner who just escaped Poetry is about the corrupt politicians who rarely Get caught with their dirty hands in the cookie jar Poetry is about the nonsense of life, the stupid war The ignorance and the incompetence of today's leaders Poetry speaks of beauty and ugliness. Poetry is for dreamers. Copyright © May 2019, Hébert Logerie, All Rights Reserved Hébert Logerie is an author of several books of poetry.
