Analysis of To Poetry
Metaphors or similes
Thoughts, ideas and allusions
Explode
Only in poetry
Passions and catharsis
Of feelings and metamorphosis
Of words into eternal wisdom
Grow
Music and rhythm
Songs to lovers and birds
Marvels of pen, miracles of poesy
Exhibit
A gateway of literary heaven
Paradise of creative artists
Poet's true wisdom
Shines
Noble are drama and prose
But the food of thoughts
Soul healer, truly exist
Only in poetry
