Power of Poetry

It's greater than the power of kings
It's the wonder in everyday things
It's the essence of creativity
The greatest human activity

Just tantalizing words
From a realm beyond,
Just waiting to be spoken and heard
Is their only common bond

Until a poet like me
opens up his soul
and lets the words take control
Just to create a masterpiece

And it doesn't matter
If your young or old,
Cause the beauty of poetry
Is for all to behold
