Poetry is an art,
one that paints by words
and flows by sounds.
Rythm is its part,
groove in pulse
of pitches it's cuts.
Structure is it chart.
Short sentence its heart and
punctuated to perk...

Art, as it is.
All it should in perfection
by practise to appease.
Mastered by technique
the message known
with ease.
It's easy as it is,
to build a poem as wordings
to fits,
and hard it is,
to build one that lasts as befits.
Secret lies in the carving.
Secret lies in the technique.
All above all,
Secret lies in the passion.
