The crown of literature is poetry. — W. Somerset Maugham
Poetry is a unifying factor. It is a form of expression that can cover any subject and human emotion.




One of the best partners in writing? A cat! — Primadonna Angela
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

If you look a dog in the eye too intensely, it may recite an astounding poem to you. —Jean Genet

A dog, I have always said, is prose; a cat is a poem. — Jean Burden




A catless writer is almost inconceivable. It’s a perverse taste, really, since it would be easier to write with a herd of buffalo in the room than even one cat; they make nests in the notes and bite the end of the pen and walk on the typewriter keys. ― Barbara Holland



To elevate the soul, poetry is necessary. — Edgar Allan Poe

Poetry is breathing words that give a reader pause. — Ankita Singhal

All great poetry is dipped in the dyes of the heart. — Edith Sitwell
