Welcome to Imagine Poetry

As the first line of the poem says, imagine poetry and all it can be, how often do the ones that really truly love poetry sit and think about that.

Poetry has been around for centuries, inspiring us, helping us,  teaching us, and and showing us the many wonders of life.

Imagine Poetry

Imagine Poetry and all it can be
drifting our minds to far away seas
taking us places we never have gone
being the heart to all of our songs.

For it changes our lives, the way that we feel
it takes simple words, and makes them so real
it gives us new meaning, and new ways to see
what keep our soul strong , and makes us so free.

Can anything else hold such intensity and fire
 igniting the fuse to our deepest desires
and give us such vision with all of its glory
to tell us life's journey, in its passionate story

So imagine poetry, and where it began,
all it believes, to its future and end
and always accept, right from the start
that poetry forever can change the heart.
