Poetry is like a prayer,
In your moments of despair.

It can be a guiding light,
In the darkness of your night.

Poetry is like a Rose,
Open petals do compose,
Musical, poetic thought,
New Worlds, creativity,
All the secrets of the Sea.

Poetry is at its best,
When Love makes a loving nest,
To respect all living things,
And embrace the joy Love brings.
