The word poetry comes from ancient Greece. Poieo translated means “I create”. Poetry, when it is well written, goes much deeper than the words on a page. The ability to use written words to create images and feelings in the audience mark the abilities of a great poet. Much like sculptors have stone and painters have a canvas, a poet’s medium for expressive art is writing. Poetry is an art using language, but it is also a state of mind.
