The Art of Poetry

The most oldest,of all kinds of art that mankind upto now possess is the art of poetry.When man
from his inception on this globe came into being and when he imitated and started to sound like
birds and animals and later was able to express his thoughts and ideas through sign language
which later developed into a written language through various changes and development into
a fully pledged language that now exist and mainly spoken as different languages and dialects
with which and through which one can express and interpret his thoughts into different forms
of subjects that for thousands and thousands of years old and still exist.The earliest forms
of writings,in many old languages were dead and gone but some were amalgamated or had
changed into a new one.In all such written languages ,that which continued to exist,the
earliest writings still seen were mostly poetical form.In certain languages,various subject
as that of medicine ,history,literature, religion and code of law and order were in some or
other form of poetry.Even to this day, most languages of the world have their heritages ,
history ,literature and thoughts in poetical form.The so called Vedic literature which have
still exist only through verbal exchange from person to person and only very recently
had been in printed form.The poetical form was found to be easier to memorise and
therefore it has been passed from person to person for a very long time!
