From an interview with Adam Zagajewski: Q: Can poetry resemble prayer? AZ: Absolutely. Many poems, sometimes very beautiful ones, have a prayer-like aspect. The urge to write poetry is somehow akin to the urge to pray, also because most poets are convinced that someone or something seems to dictate poems to them. To many poets, the very premise of writing poetry is something religious in itself, as if some higher authority assists with the writing. This cannot be scientifically proven, of course.
