Poetry is…

Poetry is

A story

An expression

An emotion

Nothing can be wrong

Everything is right

It could be long

it could be life

true or false

somewhere in between

something different for everyone

poetry is everything

a demon to some

a nightmare to read

but making your own

changes what’s seen

yours or mine

it is a story told

of young or old

but the presence is known

short and sweet

it ends to soon

a wind that whispers

all the secrets of the moon

poetry is everything

but nothing if you do not care for it some
