Poetry is…

by Alia Loder

Poetry is a way to cool off

Poetry is a way to release and relax

Poetry is a way to know what you care about

Poetry is a way to express yourself

Poetry is laying in the sweet summer sun

Poetry is floating in an icy pool on a burning summer day

Poetry is a way to be you

Poetry is a way to show people what you care about

Poetry is bright pink in a sea of gray

Poetry is a sprout in a forest of old trees

Poetry is a lifestyle

Poetry is liquid gold

Poetry is being with your loving family

Poetry is ALL CAPS

Poetry is bad grammar as long as you meant it

Poetry is anything you want it to be
