When I hear the word poem, or when I think of a poem, a song comes to mind. I've been told many times that songs are poems. None the less, many people loves music so an easy way for me to enjoy poems I listen to them as a form a music. Poems and sonnet to me are a way for us to express our emotions like really express our emotions, because when reading a poem there is usually so much energy and excitement used.
I am not good with poems. I tried writing poems many times to the point of an overkill. I've tried writing poems from middle school through to high school, and even now in college. I have friends who are natural at putting together words and expressing their emotions using words than I do. Being creative with my vocabulary isn't something I can do rite off the top of my head. Friends I know are able to compose lyrics/ poems with a deeper meaning than I could, and I spent more time than they did.
Poems are one of the most popular way for me to really express how I feel, but I might not be to in touch with my emotions as others are. My choice of words and vocabulary isn't the greatest, none the less I do try. I love songs, that is usually the best way for me to listen to poems otherwise I don't just go and write a poem.
We should form a club Ze ! Im not the best poet in the world either. I love music, and when I was told that poetry is a form of music, I started to appreciate poetry more. I guess that the main reason that Im not crazy about poetry, is because in high school the teachers made it out to be a negative thing. They were terribly wrong.
ReplyDeleteSongs are my favorite type of poetry too. For some reason I can get more from a song than a poem found in the textbook. Poetry isn't that easy for me either. I usually takes me a long time to gather a poem together. Poetry is the most challenging type of literature, but I have enjoyed it more than drama and short stories.
ReplyDeleteSongs are the only kind of poetry I like! It explains so much more than words itself. The music combined with the meaning behind the poem is so great that it makes all twice as great!! I love music!! : )
