What Is Poetry?



A poem is a rainbow
because a poem is different 
Different like colorful
Different like us

We've got stories to tell
Poems are those stories
Whether you realize or not

Experience is a poem
"Write What You Know"
How can you not,
really

Our universe is complex
Like a poem

A meadow is simple 
So is a poem

A poem, a reader works hard to decode
A poem, the poet understands with ease

Sometimes it's hard to describe, 
with the world full of unique perspectives and all

I do my best.
