The crown of literature is poetry.
W. Somerset Maugham
The poetry of the earth is never dead.
John Keats
Spring has returned. The earth is like a child that knows poems by heart. Rainer Maria RilkePoetry has been around for thousands of years. Like other forms of literature, poetry is written to share ideas, express emotions, and create imagery.
Every poet finds their own muse – the irresistible figure that draws the artist (author, writer) toward the light of creativity. To some, muse is a guardian spirit or force who is a source of inspiration for creativity.
Write me a poem. Write me several poems. A muse me. — N’Zuri Za Austin
A dog, I have always said, is prose; a cat is a poem. — Jean BurdenOne of the best partners in writing? A cat! — Primadonna Angela
Edgar Allan Poe
To elevate the soul, poetry is necessary.

Poetry is breathing words that give a reader pause.
Edith SitwellAll great poetry is dipped in the dyes of the heart.
