WHAT IS POETRY?

Poetry is when imagination talks,

finding a trace of light,

the time when clouds cover the sky

or in a moonless night.

Poetry is about discovering the traces of life in an abandoned heath 

it is all about transforming dry papers

into colourful, sensational rosy wreath.

It is watching shapes, faces and things

in the white clouds of sky 

In its realm, creativity talks, 

enabling intellect to fly high.

It is an exercise of brain,

letting one to think and feel

more than commoners,

activating the creative zeal.

Let's switch on our foresight

let's see out of the box 

poetry belongs to those only

who can think unorthodox.

Let's use words to paint beyond black and white

let's focus on metre and write in rhyme 

What is formed hereafter 

survives the assaults of time. 

When the heart is emancipated 

and the soul is free 

The divine that is created then

is called poetry.
