    While some people may think that an author does not use any sort of elements of poetry to write‚ they actually do use it more than we all know.

    Poetry Assignment War Poetry A popular theme for poets in the last century was war. Many famous poems were written about the two world wars‚ as well as the Korean and Vietnam wars.

    For the Love of Poetry As once said by prominent activist Helen Keller‚ “the best and most beautiful things in the world cannot be seen or even touched—they must be felt with the heart.” One of the few things that can’t be touched but experienced with the heart is poetry. Just as poetry is embraced on a more powerful level with the heart‚ so is the universal concept of love. And although love can come in a combination of ways whether it be between a child and a mother‚ an old withered couple

    Definition of Poetry The poems that I’ve read from this chapter have left me confused and delirious. Poems can take you on an emotional‚ physical‚ and mental roller coaster. The poet can make you feel a certain way after reading their work. I believe that the best definition of poetry is Emily Dickinson’s definition.
