Poetry is the music of longing.
Trees are poems the earth writes upon the sky, We fell them down and turn them into paper, That we may record our emptiness.
Kahlil Gibran
...poetry began when somebody walked off of a savanna or out of a cave and looked up at the sky with wonder and said, “Ahhh.” That was the first poem.
