Life is a machine<\/p>\n\n\n\n

and poetry is its ticking.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Life is a jewel<\/p>\n\n\n\n

and poetry is its sparkle.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Life is a dance<\/p>\n\n\n\n

and poetry is the music.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Life is a journey<\/p>\n\n\n\n

and poetry is the wineflask.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Life is  the rainstorm<\/p>\n\n\n\n

and  poetry is the rainbow.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Life is the man<\/p>\n\n\n\n

and poetry is his madness.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
