THERE ARE MANY PEOPLE WHO TRY THEIR HAND AT POETRY BY RHYMING RANDOM WORDS, BUT THE TRUE ART OF POETRY IS PAINTED WITH THE EMOTION IT STIRS IN THE INDIVIDUAL READING IT. LOVE IS NEVER FAR FROM THE STROKE OF EVERY POETS PEN OR BRUSH...BE IT SAID. VICKIE THAYER 2018

Poetry is not simply rhyming words, It's a genuine work of art, Painted from inside, A memory captured, Broken hearts dripping pain to paper, With tears that erase impunity, It's grasping hope that is lost then found, And cleverness that fondles laughter, Yes, I hide you in my poetry, You are there, In every word. Vickie Thayer Poetess 2018

I agree with your sentiments.. It is about emotions, but for me it is also how word are used to express these emotions..
