About+Poetry

===Poetry came from the Greek Word //poiesis (////ποίησις//— with a broad meaning of a "making", or more narrowly the making of poetry). The said art makes use of the skills related to the aesthetic qualities of language to evoke meanings in addition to, or in place of, the prosaic ostensible meaning. Poetry also revolves around the use of the rhyme, alliteration and/or iambic pentameter to achieve a desired musical or incantatory effect - while the uses of ambiguity, metaphor, synonism and other figures of speech are often used to give certain poems meaning or aesops, or simply leaving them open for interpretation. Although poetry - and its' meaning or uses change over time, there is only one thing to agree upon. Poetry is the song from, and of the human heart alone, as countless examples in history and antiquity shall show.===

===While Poetry itself come in vastly different and variable forms throughout the history of human civilisation, one could simply sort them into the following categories. There are the Epics, Odes, Sonnets, Haikus and Comedic Poems.===
