Philosophy

What is an art? 
An art 
is creative 
of the mind 
in creation of mankind. 
Arts are foods 
which are good 
in our lives. 
There are five 
Fitting in a glove 
expressing love. 
They are music dance drama art and literary 
these arts of five 
Make up life. 
it is done 
by people 
Who can create 
The making 
That we are taking 
For granted 
Which is demanded. 
Entertainment's 
Which is mentioned 
depends specially on music. 
many centuries ago 
Arts were done 
which are gone 
are the days 
To say 
in secrets 
We today 
can express freely 
in arts 
Our moods 
from the roots 
of our depressions 
Which arts cures when 
and diminish our aggressions? 
Arts is with us 
by nature 
Which is pure 
Without arts 
We cannot survive 
We must give 
so that arts 
Continue to live 
Long live arts.
