How To Write Poetry


Do we WRITE poetry?

To me
Poetry is a free flowing thought
set off by a stray word, a glorious sight
a smile, a frown, or a sigh.

Poetry is a dew drop perched on a tiny twig 
glimmering on a cold winter morning

Poetry sprouts from a seed 
buried 
in every heart, yet not nurtured

A four-cornered mirror-poetry 
reflects 
the profound depths of a soulful heart

Poetry is the lotus 
that blooms 
out of the quagmire called 'world'

Poetry is 
the proclivity of 
being humane in words.
