Poetry lives in every heart that ever cared for someone or something, that ever hoped or aspired, that ever knew harmony or sought peace. All are poets young and old. Perhaps the finest and truest poets never write a verse, but have poetry down deep in their heart.
A poet is not a mere dabbler in verse, he is a person endowed with a sense of beauty, and that beauty he sees in everything. A poet is a person who feels that a wonderful Being rules and reigns and makes everything in life move in accord with His purpose. Thus a poet believes in the harmony of the universe.
A poet feels it is his destiny to love and cherish the good around him. A poet is a worker in behalf of the light of human understanding. His main duty and task is to promote a love for that most deserving, and with that better understanding.
