WHAT IS POETRY?
A poem begins with a lump in the throat. --Robert Frost
What is poetry?
It is finding the truth, no need to lie.
It's munching on watermelon and letting seeds fly.
It's a letter that comes with a card in the mail.
It's the lacy silver threads left by a garden snail.
It's daffodil trumpets covering the hill.
It's a deer at the creek, drinking her fill.
It's giggling and laughing and being absurd.
It's reading a haiku and feeling each word.
Happy Saturday. It is a great day to celebrate poetry. For today's challenge, can you write a haiku and include something from nature.
