Definition by Leonard M HawkesPoetry can be
When the Eye sees,
And the soul Speaks.
Poetry can be
A heart song remembered--
Well-beyond memory;
Spring light through beech leaves—
Sunset o’er the salt marsh—
A wilderness lake ‘neath the moon—
Pulsing-blue-white winter stars—
Recognized,
Rendered,
And Shared.
