My Poetry Defines Me

Shower of autumn leaves and acorns,
And rustling sound as I stroll.
Those mesmerising bubbles all-round,
As I dive in the pool.
And also, when, looking into his eyes,
Silently, I can walk thousand miles.

Yes! This is the poetry to me.
The power to see the unseen!

A lady dressed in pink, in my sight.
With complementing accessory soaked in glittery white.
And my heart fondly admires, 
Wow! That blushing pink charmer!
Just like an innocent pearl in an oyster.
Adorning beautiful pearl in white,
Gracefully gleaming bright!
And also, when I see those young, tanned lads,
Completely soaked in mud.
And, scaring me, with their thud.
Then, smiling broadly to show their set of teeth.
Oh! I love them, they are all sweet!

Yes! This is the poetry to me.
It definitely beautifies my thoughts!

When I see my friend upset.
Without even a word, I know his mindset.
Slipping quietly my hand on her hand.
I can feel her with my inner strength.

Yes! This is the poetry to me.
It teaches me to empathise.

When I am low  
Poetry raises me back, to glow!
When my confidence begins to retire.
Poetry gives me the strength to fight like fire!

Yes! This is the poetry to me.
Always by my side to support me.

Poetry hones in me, a better orator,
 As it makes me, a better expresser.
Yes! It helps me to build my character.
My poetry is me!
