Poetry is...

Poetry is a story, at times you have to read between the lines to appreciate it. It’s when there is emotion, anywhere from sad, discouraging or happy and wise, when poetry is at its best. The significance of poetry is not the thing being said, but the way it is being said.

I suppose people have a love/hate relationship with poetry, for the reason that at times it’s hard to write a poem with rhythm. Every so often you come across a poem that is hard to comprehend what is actually happening. Nevertheless, there is a lot of people that are passionate about poetry, and that can understand it word-for-word.

Personally, I love free verse poetry, when there is no right or wrong. My logic for that is,it's not fun to write, when you can’t put what you really want - because it doesn’t rhyme or have the current line count. Poetry to me is an outlet. For the reason that poetry can signify so much to one person, but the person beside you, will have no idea what your truly reading or writing.
