Poetry is a flight of the words high in the sky. The history of poetry involves a long discussion. Early attempts to define poetry were focused on the uses of rhetoric, speech, song, drama, and comedy. Later the concentration was developed on features like rhyme and repetition emphasizing the aesthetics that distinguish prose from poetry. In an actual manner it’s a beautiful world of words that is capable of eradicating dryness and dullness from one’s life by making it anew.

Hindi Poetry is a treasure of Hindi literature. It has remained in the depth of inner being. Indian poetry has the words that wooed the readers. Poetry is like an infinite sky for the soul to take her flight in. It not only describes the different emotions of life but also invokes the mercy of GOD up above. Hindi poet Kabir is one of the greatest poets who in his poetry criticized the existing orthodox sects in India, and emphasizes the importance of human transformation for universal brotherhood.

Not only poetry in Hindi language signifies the spiritual aspect of a human being. But poetry in all languages and forms conveys the idea of peace and love. Even Urdu poetry in its different forms such as mushaira, mazahiya shairi, nazam etc. criticizes the dullness of human life and tries to drive away all complexities involved. Poetry actually is something that makes one laugh or cry, a world to narrate or describe the different aspects of life. It has insight that understands the element of truth and beauty.
