Maria Cristina Azcona

“We can say that Poetry is the literary expression that seeks beauty through resources that are it own and of the verse as structure. It seeks to delight the senses and to move the emotional sensibility at the same time. Poetry is like a golden pearl born into a sea of words. Moreover, Poetry is music in words and even the dynamic portrait of the soul. The finished poem acquires an own life. It is a creature formed by alive letters and its DNA generates mysterious links that enfold the keys of human existence”
