poetry is the song of the heart
not a specific portion but every single part
to understand it shouldn't mean that you have to be considered smart
it just means that you have to fall in Love with a true work of art

poet Anonymous

Poetry is beauty;
blown glass iridescence
hung from aged branches,
catching the sun between heartaches.

Aish, that's damned gorgeous.


Poetry is a voice upon the wind, bringing warmth and depth from elsewhere spires.
The cloak and gloves of those brave enough to attempt to capture the dragon of inner fires
The bed of morning suns, optimisms and surprises,
a lover's abode most gilded with sentiment and admiration

Poetry to a poet
is like the head above shoulders,
behead and kill the exuberance-
a few seconds for the artiste like a dying fish.

poetry is the life in a word,
its what we do,
its a bond that joins me and you.
Its what makes me and you

poetry is but a recipe of thoughts
each concoction reflects a different flavor
melodic tunes, and a kaleidoscope of color
an essence of the purest extract of the soul.

Wriggling and writing about shit
Burning up and into paper
A plasterer of endless repetitions
Before i forget it

poetry is that breath of fresh air
it's the breeze flowing like fingers through the hair
it's the object that grasps control of the observer's stare
it is simply the truth about the Life we wish to share

poet Anonymous

Poetry is a rolling, turbulent, flash flood of a river,
hell bent on inundating everything in its path.
Sweeping away innocence, undermining strong foundations.  
Receding, its waterline stain remains to remind.

Poetry drags me out of my husk by the hair
and strips me down to muscle, organs, bone
through a simple breath held for only seconds
cradled in this hollow hall, my throat.

poetry is everything,
a heavy heart with open eyes
willing to watch the spin of a single atom
and tell the story of it all.

Poetry is how I feel.
Even dreams written about through me are forever real.
If I sit or stand starving with no guides it feeds me a lasting inner meal.

To get away from everything a way to escape in a more healthy way.
Thoughts come out before crammed inside this rare steaming head.
Alot to talk about also alot to say.
Even when life treats you good this is still my way.

Poetry is emotion
Every feeling infused into the right words
While Passion and Inspiration linger between the lines
All From the writers' minds
