Poetry Domain
Something as beautiful as poetry must originate from a divine force. That is a core tenet among those who worship gods of poetry and oratory, such as Balder the Beautiful, Apollo, or Saraswati. The followers of these gods are often gifted skalds themselves, but dedicate their life's work to their deity.
