I Am Poetry: a Poet's Worth

Poetry: A strong pillar, the sun, the moon
Stands on a point watching the
Whole world,I expressed my feelings with
Emotion,imagination.
World of poetry, world of passion
When day turns to dark,
I bring it back to light, when world is in despair
And fear,I give the courage.
When world is breathless,I continue to
Breathe, I am the true expression
In the verse of words.
When words is rock in the heart
I bring it out
Like piece of thread
I am poetry, I am the world.
