WHAT IS POETRY
Poetry has been around since ancient Biblical
times.
King David, Moses, and King Solomon wrote the
Psalms.
Poets share ideas, express emotions, and
create imagery.
And proudly present them to readers in
beautiful poetry.
*
With poetry, we can write about anything we
feel.
True things, and even things unreal.
Poetry can take us into an enchanted world.
A land of dreams, reality, hope, and places
untold.
*
Poetry can be used to express something
artistically.
The use of rhyme and rhythm contributes magically.
Thoughts and ideas can be arranged in
stanzas,
Making the language simple to connect with
readers.
*
Poetry is long-lived, and an important part
of art and culture.
Blank verse, rhymed, free verse, narrative,
and Tanka,
Pastoral, sonnet, elegies, odes, limericks,
epics, and haiku.
Even Soliloquy, villanelle, lyrical, ballad,
and Gogyohka too.
*
When I visited Shakespeare’s hometown, I
grew to love Poetry.
Like a stranger standing at my door, it
waited to greet me.
It brought out the best in me and made me
happy.
On World Poetry Day, I display my poetry
books proudly.
