"Poetry is when an emotion has found its thought and the thought has found words." ― Robert Frost Topic(s): Poetry More From Robert Frost "Love is an irresistible desire to be irresistibly desired." "Modern poets talk against business, poor things, but all of us write for money. Beginners are subjected to trial by market." "A poem begins as a lump in the throat, a sense of wrong, a homesickness, a lovesickness." More In Poetry "If poetry alters the way in which the reader views the world, then it has had its desired effect."― John Barton "We recognise in the finished art, which is the result of these conditions, the best words in the best order – poetry; and to put this essential poetry into different classes is impossible."― John Drinkwater "In the heat of the Russian summer a sleeping car is the most horrible instrument of martyrdom imaginable."― Manfred von Richthofen
