Poetry

Definition: an art form which has rhythm in verses and expression shown through litereary work.
Example:

Fire and Ice
Some say the world will end in fire,
Some say in ice.
From what I've tasted of desire
I hold with those who favor fire.
But if it had to perish twice,
I think I know enough of hate
To say that for destrucion ice
Is also great
And will suffice.
~Robert Frost
