A Definition Of Poetry

Rating: 4.9


Poetry I write
Now as always at night
It'll be said when it's right
Poetry's language of a kind
That does itch the mind
Illuminated or the blind
Poetry purveys to me
What it does to Lee
Bleak it be or glee
Poetry "come(s) slowly"
As a poet "wandered lonely"
For Maya put "simply"
Poetry I write
Beholden and plight
Forever in its light
