Poetry Is

Poetry is the breeze in the air,
that keeps me cool.
Like a dark, long night,
the emotions are always at fight.
It contains harmony 
like the sound of a chorus.
Like milk to a newborn,
it feeds my soul.
It is an art of rhythm and words,
we just need to let the paint flow.
Like shells on the beach,
each one is creative and unique. 
Like a kitten's fur,
the words could be soft.
Or like a porcupine, 
it could be rough and sharp. 
A poem is written words unsung.
