The Meaningful Art of Poetry


These are not just words, but they are words to be spoken,

From the depths of a heart, particularly chosen

To tell a story in such a way, in such sincerity,

In such imagery, blooming with beauty made golden.

 

It is known for its rhythm and rhyme when read or heard.

Ears listen, the atomosphere as silent as chirping birds,

All waiting for a voice to speak in the art of poetry.

No one will say a word, not one word, to hear the word.

 

Stirred up emotions from the oceans of this feeling...

This feeling... of tranquility, peace, love, and healing

Poetry allows oneself to express themself completely

These words, these emotions, this purity is the meaning

 

The true meaning, from what I believe, is true poetry
