A Celebration of Poetry

by dejohnsrld (Debbie)

A Celebration of Poetry
 
Poetry reflects beauty
a splendid palette
painted on canvas with words
 
Poetry is an orchestra
with melody emanating
from my heart and soul
 
Poetry is a vibrant flower
starting from a small thought
which when cultivated, blossoms
 
Poetry is creativity
inspired by the most unusual
circumstances in life
 
Poetry is gentle, but strong
holding great meaning
in its powerful lines
 
Poetry is variable
beautiful sometimes
shocking at others
 
Poetry is emotional release
whether sad or glad it is
therapeutic and healing
 
Poetry is communication
support and friendship
among fellow writers
 
Poetry is love and connection
as we exchange with others
thoughts shared nowhere else
 
Poetry keeps us centered
as we soul-search
seeking authenticity
 
Poetry is a way of thinking
a way of being
a way of living
