Poetry is..

by Rainbow - Capricorn

Poetry is painting without the oils,
   No canvas or charcoal,
Poetry is songs without the music,
   No melody or tones.
Poetry is dance without the movement,
   No ballet or tap,
Poetry is a movie without the screen,
   No actors or cast.
Poetry is art, spoken or written words,
   From the depths of our souls,
These arts are forms of creative expression,
   Gifts as precious as gold.

Reason for writing:

    Sometimes it seems as though poetry isnt taken seriously, as seriously as ballet or artwork...:)
