Why Poems?
Poems are my photographs
my diary
my inner monologue
poems are my measurement
my record
the fingerprints of emotions
invisible no more
Poems are my expression
the sum of interactions
they show my working out
Poems are the breath
of lost lovers
against my neck
Poems are my kisses
for my family and my friends
the hugs I seldom give
And your poems...
your poems keep me company
a little light
calling to my lost ship
I sip my tea
and slip into your mind...
(Really quick one in response to Vautaw's What Is Poetry?)

Thanks Kate and yes! it's a precious thing to have discovered; both writing and reading.
