Many think that poetry has died a cultural death in our society. But has it?
Wikipedia defines poetry as “a form of literature that uses aesthetic and rhythmic qualities of language—such as phonaesthetics, sound symbolism, and metre—to evoke meanings in addition to, or in place of, the prosaic ostensible meaning”.

Before there were such things as 140 character “tweets” and “status updates,” there was poetry.
