    This short poem discusses the nature of poetry, stating that the meaning of a poem is not found in the literal words but is more akin to a symbolic experience, like the breathlessness of birds. It also asserts that poetry cannot be repeated through paraphrasing and that a poem's purpose is not to convey meaning or thought, but rather to create a feeling of grace, loveliness, and caress through its language and form.

    The meaning of a poem is not a
    meaning of words.
    The meaning of a poem is a symbol like
    the breathlessness of birds.
    A poem cannot be repeated in
    paraphrase.
    A poem is not a thought but a grace.
    A poem has no meaning but loveliness.
    A poem has no purpose than to caress.
