Poetry can be what ever you want,
Be it true to the world or quite untrue;
It is the first line for one to understand,
What each feeling says inside of you.
When you read a poem's meaningful line,
Which gives a spark to a wandering heart;
Only then can that the utmost define,
Only then will you find where feelings do start.
Yes, poetry's everything personal,
Like a garden you are growing inside;
It is with own eyes quite different to all,
Giving inspirations and burning bright.
Don't ever stop listen to high flown words,
For they are most likely poetry birds.
