The Power of Poetry


Even before we breathe,

We see love.

As we begin to love,

We see poetry.

Poetry- it's a beautiful thought.

It's used in songs; in books...

It expresses our deepest, innermost thoughts.

Poetry makes regular, everday words into something greater-more meaningful.

Poetry has the power to heal broken hearts, confess love-

It provides security for the mourning.

Nonetheless, the power of poetry-what makes it so important-is YOU!
