Why I Love Poetry

Genuinely! I've not been the most frequent on this pen But there are men and women, boys and girls That have used it to walk on the shores of emotions, Showing conviction to inspire an evolution Using Compiling lines that demand admiration Making this art beautiful and thought provoking Invoking sensations of humor, love, sorrow, inspiration They have gone the extra mile Moving people and spreading innovations Poets are philosophers Campaigners of a world controlled by the mind Creators of nations where reasons and feelings are combined Inventors of spheres where dictions and connotations are aligned In the only art form that knows how: Poetry It's a lubrication to our souls A beeline route to the heart It's array of imaginations obligate consciousness With verses of heavenly adoration Poetry push motivation into dying bodies Like doctors healing patients on life support Conveyed through comedy or romance, activism or insight Just the right words in just the right ways turn poems into vitamins nourishing our fading bodies with endless possibilities By connecting ink to paper Poets through poems Highlights the most extraordinary factors of life Into the most ordinary style possible The raw use of vernacular makes this art spectacular They're ideas without frontiers Lines fused to mold our dreams into entities Verses and imagery construct poems into precisely powerful printings That have touched so many lives Having the greatest effect on me And this is Phenomenal!
