Best Answer

No one "created" poetry because it has always existed, within the earth's natural rhythms, cycles and sounds. If you are asking who first started writing poetry, that one is a bit difficult to answer as well. Poetry started as an oral tradition; poets and storytellers would memorize poems, especially longer ones, such as The Iliad and Beowulf. I am not sure if anyone knows who wrote the first poem, but poetry had been around long before the written word.
