Code is poetry

Only a passionate programmer would know what I mean, and how does it feel to say that your code flows like poetry...

I recently found that written on a wordpress plugin page..

So when does code look like poetry? When its logic flows from one case to another in a seamless manner.. like a river, gracefully accepting whats thrown its way, making amends for them and happily moving ahead.

It doesn't happen always though.. I've written enough code to know when my code flowed like a calm river meandering through its path towards the ocean ... much like a poem..

Like my ex boss's car sticker said, mocking at the big bad world, "I'd rather code" ...
