A good poem looks life straight in the face, unflinching, sincere, equal to revelation through loss or gain.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
Poetry gives us courage and sets us straight with the world. Poems are great companions and friends.
Poetry is at least an elegance and at most a revelation.
A poem might be defined as thinking about feelings - about human feelings and frailties.
My poems are always about my life in one way or another.
I like poems that inspire, that make us think and reflect. It's like putting love into the world for whoever picks it up.
I shall try to write a poem that is about the moment but doesn't betray things that are true to me as a poet.
Poetry is a beautiful way of spoiling prose, and the laborious art of exchanging plain sense for harmony.
Good poets have written in order to describe something or to preach something - with their eye on the object or the end. The essence of the poetry does not lie in the thing described or in the message imparted but in the resulting concrete unity, the poem.
All bad poetry springs from genuine feeling.
A really good poem is full of music.
