answers3: Poetry as an art form may predate literacy.[4] Many ancient
works, from the Indian Vedas (1700–1200 BC) and Zoroaster's Gathas
(1200-900 BC) to the Odyssey (800–675 BC), appear to have been
composed in poetic form to aid memorization and oral transmission, in
prehistoric and ancient societies.[5] Poetry appears among the
earliest records of most literate cultures, with poetic fragments
found on early monoliths, runestones and stelae.
answers4: Oh my, there was never any 'first poet'. When humanity
gained speech, then poetry was born. <br>
<br>
Robert Penn Warren believed that poetry provided us with a sense of
conquest over the disorder and meaninglessness of experience. <br>
<br>
Li Bai believed that speech itself was poetry, and Whitman felt that
life was the finest poetry written in our universe. Homer and the
writers of Beowulf were siblings across time, organizing their worlds
into tales told well and with great beauty. <br>
<br>
The first time I saw the Northern Lights I was awestruck, terrified,
and immensely in need of reassurance which I found by composing long
verses out loud to the skies and heavens which brought this sight
alive. <br>
<br>
That was, in me, some of the birth of poetry, and I well imagine that
it was so ever since we walked upright and spoke aloud.
