What is poetry to me
A chance and opportunity
To break out and break free
From the gilded cage
Imprisoning me
To dream of stars
And cosmic themes
To pontificate on nature
And the wonder it gives
To rant to rage about social things
And make a stand environmentally
To speak of love straight from the heart
To weave words of spiritual sparks
To create verses hoping to paint a masterpiece
This is what poetry means to me.
Very well written. Brings out the very essence of poetry.
Here’s a poem I wrote. Will you please give it a read? It’s not really great as yours. But it would mean a lot to me.
“A chance and opportunity
To break out and break free
From the gilded cage”
😀 Nice one!! This is really good one!
Poetry to me
How I purge incessantly
The impurities that clog my being
How I peel off the many layers of emotions
Accumulated over time
Through statements with little or no periods.
