I read two or three poems weekly and own more than 20 volumes of poetry. Often, poems speak more directly to my heart than stories do. I’ve written some good poems and encourage students by showing them good, modern poems and having them write one each term.

I had written poetry more than I had read on my spare time because there were lots of things I wanted to express from the bottom of my heart, including my experiences with the love from my loved ones and friends. As a writer, I create my composition as I am writing a chapter of my life because poetry can also be your story too. It's more than describing a theme/scenery.

In fact I was making fun of her because I thought its wasting of time.Also, I founded it tough and complicated.Especially, in here i don't even understand the the full meaning of poems most of the time as a second language person

Even though I don’t read poetry that often, I still think that it’s the best way to express our feeling and emotions. I had written many poems before and each one has sent a different message. Somewhere sad and some brought the happiness to the reader. That’s why it’s the best.

Since I learned about poems, I started to write my own. I was born in Shiraz which is known as the city of love and poetry because of poets like, “Hafez and Saidy;” so it got my attention and made me read more poems which all are full of messages and feelings. (52 words)

Every time I encounter poem, I am very impressed by language in it that say more than ordinary language. In last couple years, I have learned pretty much about poetry which helps me to understand and unpack its meaning easily. Still I have trouble writing them and need to put a lot of effort to write one.

I don’t like the poetry is difficult for me to understand. I adore the poem when it could bring me some beautiful feeling. The poem can give us more space to imagine and also can touch our heart deeply when we can learn it very well if it really is a wonderful poem.

I like and dislike poems. I enjoy reading the poems with repetitions of its theme and rhyme at end of its stanzas, like “Lucy Gray”, has song-like rhythms. I struggle puzzling out the poems which have hidden meanings, like “The Dandelions”, has abstract overlapped images. I would rather sing than paint a poem. – 53 words

I am very interesting in writing and listing to poems. In any language poems are very use full and power full massage translator. Poem writers are very skill full because in a small words and small sentences they express lots of feelings and emotions. Personal, I like reading poems. But, I straggle to write it.
