--"The definition of Poetry."

Poetry is an endless journey through feelings and a mix of emotions that can never be explain in scientific or any other way, except by words. Words that're chosen by the feelings of him/her or it.

Author notes

Again, I wrote this tonight, right after "Poetry", or right after the second poetry after "poetry for food or foods"

What definition of poetry do you prefer to yourself?

    I agree with cee. This is a beautiful peice. Poetry has nothing to do with science, it belongs to you. Your emotions and inner self. That's what poetry is to me. Maybe not to you or cee or brian or lake or anyone, but that's what it means to me. In science you have to have that "one" answer for it to be complete, poetry no, it can stop when you want it to stop, you can choose the words and everything else. Sorta like an ingredent to a chef.

    OK, maybe I'm getting carried away. xD Anyways great poem!! I love it!

    Hope.

    I like "that can never be explained in scientific or any other way, except by words" becuase that is totally true, poetry is the opposite of science, there is no "one" right answer, there are no strict laws, never set rules on yourself when you're writing poetry, and words are what poetry is made of, they're important, they're powerful, never stop writing
