Poetry is seeing everything when there is only one thing. It is looking at a rose but seeing the stars, moons, seas, and trees. It is a truth beyond logic, an experience beyond thought. Poetry is the Earth pausing on its axis in order to manifest itself as a rose. Kamand Kojouri
About This Quote

For poetry, the rose is something that can represent so much more than just a flower. It can represent love, passion, beauty, sensuality. It is an expression of the world that exists beyond logic and thought. Poetry can be an experience that makes us see life in a new way—not just through the world of logic and thought but through our inner selves.
