Poetry is my joy, my passion
It's my heart's melodious song
It takes me on magical carpet rides
Soaring with victorious strides
From my wildest imaginations birth creativity
Indubitably, that is the art of poetry
It removes anger, hurt and resentment
Poetry is a soothing balm for all sentiments
The pen is certainly mightier than the sword
It empowers, educates and mends discord
It erodes barriers of communication
Poetry also chastises yet it brings motivation
Poetry relieves depression
And brings much inspiration
At times it offers humour and comedy
It also brings peace of mind and serenity
Poetry is also a medium of expression
For love and affection
It paints a picture so artistically
Poetry is my language, my destiny.
