Iris of Poetry

Introduction: We don't really think deep enough about "What A Poetry Actually Is", the obvious question which we all know but don't think how to really elaborate on. We mostly see the story, depth and the purpose it delivers. Well, here's one a little bit different this time... Poetry is the reflection of our lives like in the mirror, It is something we can relate to and share. It's our memories written in jumbled words, It's like a song, with a meaning it holds. A mere idea of our mystical lives, Expressed in a way from deep inside A way which only the heart can see, A place where the eyes get cold-feet The earnest truth and the sweetest lies, It's all the irony that makes poetry so alive.

Take another look at your poetry, Write it, lean on it and do it again in the best of a third person. Let you subconscious take a hold and deliver those thought that are in your soul! Let the Lord offer his grace, and remember that poetry is the thrill of the chase. When writing, step away, and find out what you gestation period is. SEE my poem called TRUE POETRY -OR-WHAT IS POETRY. And remember your friends' in the pen/G.FIELDS Keep the write-up, up!
