?Question Of The Day? "What Is Poetry?"

To me, poetry is anything that speaks to you. A smile a child gives you through the window while ur driving to work. A sunset that you can't take ur eyes off of cuz it keeps changing and you didn't wanna miss a second. Or even a specific word or phrase that reaches to the bottom of ur soul. Anything that speaks to you in an internal way is poetry to me.

to me poetry isnt always something that you write down its having an understanding of feelings and letting them out , be it through music writing acting , and when you feel sadness you express sadness , you feel warmth and happiness thats what you express

Poetry is a medium of communications that gives life and color to the mundane.
