“Poetry has an immediate effect on the mind. The simple act of reading poetry alters thought patterns and the shuttle of the breath. Poetry induces trance. Its words are chant. Its rhythms drumbeats. Its images become the icons of the inner eye. Poetry is more than a description of the sacred experience; it carries the experience itself.”
“Poetry is thoughts that breath and words that burn.”
“Poetry is thoughts that breathe, and words that burn.”
“poetry is the breath and finer spirit of knowledge”
“Poetry and art are the breath of life to her.”
