Reading and writing poetry is a beauty in itself and this splendor if given chance can blossom into an exciting and greatly inspiring experience for some one.

It is also said that all that everything God created is poetic and this is derived from the sublime beauty and wonder with which our lord created heaven and earth and Man.
