THE 'STATEMENT':
'Writing a poem is not about bringing some words together to create some charming sentences. It's so much deeper than that. Writing poetry is a bridge that allows people to express their feelings and make others live every single word they read. Poetry is to educate people, to lead them away from hate to love, from violence to mercy and pity. Writing poetry is to help this community better understand life and live it more passionately. PoemHunter.com contains an enormous number of famous poems from all over the world, by both classical and modern poets. You can read as many as you want, and also submit your own poems to share your writings with all our poets, members, and visitors.'

I really like the PH statement. And, as always, your witty assessment. Thank you, Bri for that and for your solution to the problem with the mysterious black box.
Yes, the 'black box' problem, which Kim Barney claims he has not encountered. Actually, sometimes the bottom of the 'balck box' is almost touching first line of a poem and I don't know it's the 1st line. ; (
Great analysis and appraisal by you Bri.....Would love to give you 100 for this poetic statement
Only a keen detective like you can find out the mysteries surrounding Poem Hunter.....
I think NO ONE can 'find out' all the mysteries, alas, whatever it means. ;)))))))
Like your poem so much better than PoemHunter's statement. Good that author is unknown!
Thanks, Savita, my good friend. Yes, we will have to hunt him/her/'the author' down! ! : )
Poet's Notes continued: By clicking on 'Download image of this poem' when a mysterious black box covers the beginning of a poem, a full text of the poem suddenly appears.l Magic! ! ;) bri
The Testimony you rendered to the ‘statement' of PoemHunter is such of beauty, and elegance, is so unique. Thank you Bri, for sharing your take on. Liked it.
You are a man of exquisite taste! ;)
