“There are four questions of value in life... What is sacred? Of what is the spirit made? What is worth living "for, and what is worth dying for? The answer to each is same. Only love.”

“Sorrow is knowledge, those that know the most must mourn the deepest, the tree of knowledge is not the tree of life. ”

“Tis strange - but true; for Truth is always strange, Stranger than Fiction”

“Friendship is love without wings.”

“I only go out to get me a fresh appetite for being alone.”

Poetry.

Poetry is one type of literature. Rhyme is very important there. Poems first appeared in ancient times. Writers wrote poetry by hands on paper. Verses are memorized easier than prose. Poetry has genres. Sad or happy, long or short. Poems are usually divided into couplets. The school teacher can ask to learn a poem.

Writing beautiful poetry works is not given to everyone. It It requires talent and insparation. Representatives of this type of literature. Alexander Pushkin, Lord Byron, William Shakespeare.

Poetry can be about anything. About people, about things, about love. For example, Ruslan and Ludmila by Alexander Pushkin a long and beautiful poem.

Verses have much common with songs. They both have rhyme and couplets.

There are modern poets too. They type their works on computer.

P.S. Poetry is needed to us, so we can feel the beauty of any language in rhyme.
