What is Poetry?
Poetry is a sacred prayer,
It is not a string of words mere!
It is the harbinger of a lost rapture,
The essence of life does for us it capture!
It is a form of meditation,
It draws us out of every agitation!
It takes us out of the gloomy prison of our days,
It shows us of liberating freedom the ways!
Our consciousness does it certainly raise,
It shows us a way out of life’s troubling maze!
The mundane it helps us transcend,
Into the sordid chaos of life it does not let us descend!
Our festering wounds it heals,
To the sordidness of life a decisive blow it deals!
It transforms a curse into a blessing,
Such is its power and such its exquisite dressing!
It pulls us out of the vortex of hate,
With the higher sensibilities of life it helps us keep a date!
Let a thousand poems bloom
To pull us back from the edge of doom!
