Some readers may ask, "Why is a book of poems called a book of lyrics and songs, or vice versa?"
This may be because the word poem can be misused and may be the most misused word in the English language, leading one to be very cautious about using it.
More recently, the word poem seems to have included nearly anything. What makes a good poem? Who really knows? But it does seem to be a little more than well-written prose.
The Oxford English Dictionary describes a poem as a piece of imaginative writing in verse and poetry as a quality of beauty or emotional power-poetry and fire, balanced in music.
At what stage songs and lyrics become poetry is not very clear, but the connection is clearly very close.
