For the Love of Poetry As once said by prominent activist Helen Keller‚ “the best and most beautiful things in the world cannot be seen or even touched—they must be felt with the heart.” One of the few things that can’t be touched but experienced with the heart is poetry. Just as poetry is embraced on a more powerful level with the heart‚ so is the universal concept of love.
