POETRY
What shall I compare with poetry?
It is the heartbeat of humanity,
pulsing with the rhythm of life,
What shall I liken with thee?
Through poetry's lens, we glimpse the unseen,
The untamed desires, the in-betweens
It uncovers truths, hidden in plain sight,
shedding inner light.
What shall I compare with poetry?
A language that speaks of love,
in its myriad forms,
From tender whispers to passionate storms,
It sings of loss, grief, and bittersweet pain.
What shall I compare with poetry?
To poetry there are no confines..
No rules to restrict, no boundaries to define,
It's a realm of freedom, imagination soars,
Poetry expresses the echoes of the past,
Preserving memories that forever last,
It gives voice to the voiceless,
What shall I compare with poetry?
It's like a favorite blanket on a chilly night,
wrapping us in its soft embrace,
offering comfort and solace in times of need
like the morning sun it casts its golden glow,
Poetry illuminates truths we come to know.
The_ PENWOMAN 🖊️ . Its words, like sunlight, pierce through the haze,
Enlightening our minds, guiding our ways.
Like a compass, poetry points to the true north,
A guiding light, when doubts and fears come forth.
It is the laughter of a child,
innocent and pure, bubbling forth like a spring…...
Like a favorite song that never gets old,
What then zhall I compare with poetry?
Poetry is as comforting as a mother's embrace,
It's like the taste of home-cooked meals,
evoking memories
its words like a soothing balm,
healing wounds and easing pain,
bringing solace in times of strain
It's like the feeling of sand between our toes,
It's like a rainbow after the rain,
a burst of color in a world of gray,
a reminder that even in darkness, there's light,
and hope will always shine bright.
Might I liken poetry with this poet
Poetry is a mirror to her
For just as the poet bares her heart,
Poetry lies in all her parts
It’s her art.
