This research aims to present poetry as a way of speaking and experiencing God, bringing a new perspective of theological doing and speaking, moving towards a praxis that approaches the human and not just scientific knowledge. Since Christianity is one of the three religions in the book, and since the Bible comprised a vast literature gathered between two covers, poetry and poetic discourse are present. Therefore, situated in the scope of theopoetics, this research begins by dealing with the approximations between theology and literature, not using one another as instruments, but dealing with theological and literary questions about the subject. Subsequently, poetry is presented as a search for its definition, its history and poetic revelation, leaving then for those who lead this poetry, the poets, and an analysis between the poet and the theologian. That said, psalmitic poetry is presented as canonical poetry, making a counterpoint to the apocryphal poetry that ends this research. A poetry that is not in the Bible, but that has been announced by poets for centuries. Thus, the poetess from Minas Gerais, Adélia Prado, is chosen as an example of this poetic work and apocryphal poetry through which God speaks in verses.
