Poetry

A mirror to reflect matters too close or too dear, A key to break chains of bondage and fear, A fire to forge a blade of truth, A song to soar the night skies through, A canvas for what was felt but not seen, A riddle in words, but what does it mean?

Thank you. I did it for one of the contests, but it was fun because it made me think "How do you explain what poetry really is to someone who just doesn't get it?"
