What is Poetry?
June 22, 2013
Poetry is a musical language, used by creative minds to explain the unexplainable.
It is misunderstood art form, yet inspires millions.
Poetry helps me combine my thoughts and emotions into words.
Powerful feelings, into thoughts.
Paint splattered canvas, words instead of paint.
The canvas is me.
It is attractive or ugly.
Mystical or mundane.
Poetry moves hearts and minds, all you need is paper and pen.
