Poetry is a beautiful

Poetry. Poetry is a linguistic art . It is mastered by practice. I think of poetry as a painting that you make with words. I enjoy poetry. I love to hear the flourishes and pros. But why is it important.  It is important because poetry can really make you think and it has more than surface meaning. it also a beautiful thing. Beauty is not necessary for life but it makes life all the more enjoyable. Here is a poem for you to enjoy. Do you like it? What do you think it means? What are your favorite poems which ones do you like?
Dancing
I love to dance
To move as if a flowing creek
Then like a rapid river
Jazzy hands
Pirouettes, arbalests, and plies
STOP Silence stillness the music ceases
Pointed toes straight legs
You love to dance
Swifts steps robotic moves
Quick stealthily like wolves
Straight as a line
Ready to dance and shine
Portray hate Portray love
Portray sorrow Portray Joy
She loves to dance
Happy care-free times
Hopping like a chased frog
Blowing like a tree on a windy day
Straight like Oak on bright Sunday morning
Just Dance
