Poetry was made for me

Poetry was made from high value diamonds
From pleasurable oasis
And spring of fresh waters
Surrounded by bloom of roses

Poetry was made for the stars
For kings and queens
For knights and ladies of honour
For the low and highly spirited

Poetry softness sooth the hardest of hearts
making it pump gladness around
and bringing joyous songs
like the birth of a new born

Poetry taste like old wine
Soured to the mouth
yet healing aching veins
and lifting weighty souls

Poetry was made for me
refreshing my undaunted spirit
glowing my smiling face
Poetry was made for me.
