Poetry is not just music,
To be rhythmic,
Poetry is not just didactic,
To be thematic,
So, it is not just sound and sense,
To be its essence,
Poetry is not just a narration,
To be a tale
Poetry is not just dramatic,
To be a play,
Poetry is not just suspense,
To be a detective.
Poetry not just parts of speech,
To be wordy.
Poetry is not just figures of speech,
To be imagery.
Poetry is not just specific,
To fit in a definition,
Poetry is all in one,
But not completely won.
Poetry rises from the heart,
Composed in mind for art.
To speak of the soul
With the purpose sole.
No poem can ever be square,
Like ‘a’ plus ‘b’ whole square
Poetry has majestic heights,
Imagination knows its depths,
A poem fails to fulfill. |
