Poetry is needed globally and in the marketplace.
Oh the beauty of bringing to life,
Makes me to delight in the rythms and sounds, weaving around of consonants and vowels.
Eventually evolving into phrases, clauses then full sentences, and there you have it.
Your thoughts birthed in your very presence without any assistance, just a manipulation of your vocal organs and boom you have the words and utterance.
Sometimes you don't wanna speak it, you just wanna put pen to paper or use your keypad. Whichever you desire, your thoughts are outside and that is the original plan.
Now arranging your thoughts in lines and verses, oral or written to address life situations, highlight challenges, call attention to something, effect changes or offer praises in a manner that is creative and largely entertaining.
The rhyming, wordplay, storytelling all adding to the beauty. Your tones rising and falling.
At some points you're high with your lyrics pouring like fire in your bones, and you cannot keep it.
At some point you're low with your words slowly hitting hard and gently melting the mountains of negative beliefs and culture in people's hearts.
That is poetry and it's been saving lives for ages, it's a necessity that cannot be overemphasized.
It's needed in every sector ranging from science to health to fashion and agriculture.
It is needed in every gathering, conference, symposia and lecture.
