In poetry,
We bare a part
Of our soul
For all to see.
In poetry,
We string together
Emotions in words
As beautifully as can we.
In poetry,
We find solace
Even when the world outside
Might difficult be.
In poetry,
Live on the poets
Of yesterday
In the life of today free.
In poetry,
Was everything
Worth saying
As will ever be.
In poetry,
Let’s heartily live,
Both you and I,
As happy as we can be.
Although a little late, here’s wishing all my fellow poets a happy world poetry day! 🙂

Sorry I’m a bit late to this—just started my own poetry blog recently and came across this while exploring the community.
This piece really resonated with me. The way you repeated “In poetry” gave the whole thing a steady rhythm, almost like a quiet heartbeat. It reminded me why I started writing in the first place—how poetry lets us say things we can’t always explain in plain conversation. There’s something grounding and freeing about that.
Appreciate you putting this out there. It’s the kind of poem that doesn’t try too hard, but still lingers.
In poetry, we figure ourselves out—one line at a time. ✨
