POETRY Poetry what does it really mean to us? Have we ever thought about it? It tells us way more about life then we can ever think. it tells us that life is an occasion that needs to be celebrated because you only get one so SEIZE THE DAY! It's magic in the form of words, its feelings, it's emotions. Poetry is there to be felt not just to read for the sake of an exam or just to look like an intellectual. Poetry is a form where the poet shares his or her stories, perceptions, ideas all the things needed to call ourselves human. poems tell us about one's emotions and emotions tell us about ones life.
