Poetry

"The crown of literature is poetry." - W. Somerset Maugham, Of Human Bondage.

"A poet is, before anything else, a person who is passionately in love with language." - W.H. Auden, The Collected Poetry of W. H. Auden.

"Poetry is the rhythmical creation of beauty in words." - Edgar Allan Poe, The Raven, Annabel Lee.
It's like ying and yang, if you have prose you need to balance that with poetry. Like songs without music, these lyrical verses will give you pause, make you think, perhaps even coax your heart to give a little flutter.
