Poetry Explored

No accident that the Bible has some of the greatest poetry every written -- for faith, God, cannot be expressed by mere means of clear, solid definition as a diamond of carbon in a laboratory chemically dissected and defined.  God is known by cadence, synonym inspired, manifesting from the heart of imagination.  Which is not to suggest, that God is not real, not truth -- it simply means, to my mind, that poetry is Love unconditional~ gateway, for literature's highest known form of expression.  Far surpassing  philosophy.  A way of understanding and approaching our divinity both sense-fully and spiritually.

".. for literature's highest known form of expression. Far surpassing philosophy. A way of understanding and approaching our divinity both sense-fully and spiritually....!" As poets and literatures, we can confidently say that Literature is the best discipline that gives a more profound view of life even deeper than philosophy. Well articulated, dear Friend.

a very interesting point of view on poetry. I recall one time a judge had us write a psalm, a modern day one. I think I am no King David. haha!!

Kind David, Shakespeare, and Andrea -- great inspirations for Soup. You are such a splendid writer my friend. I am no Kind David either:)
