We cannot see the best things in life, we can only feel them. A poet tries to describe those indescribable feelings in a language of emotions and inner perceptions.
Poetry has its own unique language which every mind translates differently according to their own personal view.
A poet is an artist that paints pictures by mixing thought, imagination, and emotion with words.
Poetry is the flower of life. It blooms to fill life with her fragrance of inner beauty.
A poem often begins in the midst of wonderful wandering thoughts that are eager to open wings to fly in the beautiful blue sky of imagination.
Poetry is an art of expressing the unknown music of our inner feelings and emotions in our known language.
Poetry is the truth dressed up with perceptions, emotions, and anxieties of expression.
Like a wildflower, poetry does not need explanation. It only needs to touch our emotions.
And yet, it is amazing that poetry often touches the heart even though it may not try to teach us anything.
