April Editor's Choice: "Poetry is Beauty"

Poetry is what I see,

I touch, I smell, I taste,

I hear.

It is what I

See in the sunset,

Hear through the breeze, Smell in a flower.

It is the soul's Yearning to articulate in words Sans hesitancy or fear.

It is the radiance Of the sun and the contagious Sound of laughter.

The warm memories

Preserved and repressed

Through tears.
