What is poetry is like asking, 'Why is the sky blue? ' There is no answer to What or Why? but, in any event, I shall try. Poetry flows from my heart through my pen, down through its neb, Like a fly struggling in the web of a spider, waiting to be free. What is poetry-who knows-could be as simple as the morning dew on a rose, children’s laughter, a baby’s cry, a mother crooning a lullaby, bells chiming loud and clear, the voices of those that we hold dear. Poetry is the language of the soul It gives us the courage to afford life’s many streams It expands our horizons to realize our dreams. To summarize the above Poetry is the Language of Love Poetry is the Language of the Soul Poetry is the Language of Life over which we have no control.
