What Is Poetry?

By Lisann

Topics: Poetry Source: AllPoetry Original source

What  Is  Poetry? Poetry is in essence Just how we feel and act. Our thoughts are written down, Though not always exact. They have a deeper meaning, Than just what is being said, The thoughts are coming from your heart And not from your head. For poetry is subtle, Reavealing of the soul, The innermost feelings That makes a person whole, So as you read my poetry, You've got to take your time, And catch the meaning hidden Between the written lines.
