Prominent Poetry


 

     

     Poetry is the lighthouse of life
    Guiding the lost from a stormy sea.
    Without it's presence darkness prevails
    Keeping us from all we can be.

       

        Poems are used to convey passion
        By poets of both good and evil mood.
        Some are hateful others loving
        Sharing thoughts to be consumed as food.

        Verse can lead us to glory or doom
        As we partake with others within.
        Depicting our past, present and future>br> With words of man's grace or sin.

        People write poetry because they have no choice
        Answering to the call of their gift.
        Where some tend to pull their readers down
        Others compose to give them a lift.

        Always remember the power of poetry
        Is used by both heaven and hell.
        It's up to us to choose our pleasure
        As poetry remains alive and well.
