Poetry is a form of self expression. it is a unique way of arranging words to make a meaning.
"I would the poetry of words as the rhythmical creation of beauty. Its sole arbiter is taste. With the intellect or with the conscience it has only collateral relations. Unless incidentally, it has no concern whatever either with duty or with truth"
- Edgar Allan Poe
Poetry is the imaginative expression of strong feeling, usually rhythmical, the spontaneous overflow of powerful feelings recollected in tranquility.
- William Wordsworth
The language of poetry is rich in figurative expressions; it is specific and concrete. Rhythm is an important element of poetry.
Poetic licence is the privilege poets have for deviating from the norm. The freedom to use words in the unconventional style.
