a hopeless but brave effort...
It defies all definition
since it should be undescribable
to be at all convincing,
an impalpable abstraction
of word painting with some meaning
which persistently avoids to get pinned down,
a mystery of beauty
with a spiritual sense
that does not disappear
and never is forgotten.

What is poetry?
It defies all definition
since it should be undescribable
to be at all convincing,
an impalpable abstraction
of word painting with some meaning
which persistently avoids to get pinned down,
a mystery of beauty
with a spiritual sense
that does not disappear
and never is forgotten.
