What is Poetry? By Ruth Y. Nott Copyright 2004 Poetry is a person’s attempt to make sense of his world in meter and rhyme. Poetry is the beautiful structure and phrase of perfect prose. Poetry is a dance with God, close and intimate, or jitterbugging across Eden’s fertile valley. Poetry is the first shrieking cry of a newborn babe. Poetry is the tear on the cheek of a mother at her child’s graduation. Poetry is the arc and swish through the hoop of a far flung basketball in that last second effort to win. Poetry is in the music of a babbling brook or the flash of sunlight on a churning sea. Poetry is the wonder and awe of one minute bit of dust in an infinite universe trying to understand it all. Poetry is, like beauty, in the eye of the beholder.

The Meaning of Poetry by Dorothy Fontaine Poetry is a song in my heart that longs to be heard. Poetry is the deepest secrets of my soul that needs to be said. Poetry is th _expression of everything I hold dear within my soul, when spoken words are not said. Poetry is the pen that writes the words to let me be heard. Poetry is the mood I am in. Poetry is a picture drawn, within imagination, but can only be seen by the words on the screen. Poetry is art in another form. Poetry is the real person that I am.
