Answer 2

A short history, written by me...

As the world has evolved—though not necessarily progressed—into a very individualistic, sense-based society, poetry has become an important part of pop culture. It is succinct, adjective-packed and realistic. It is changing with its poets, yet somehow collective. It is witty and sarcastic, humorous and educational. It can be one’s intelligence fix for the day—a shot of potent opinion and angst.

However, poetry is not only the fine art of phraseology, but also a lifestyle—a response system—a form of journalism, and a psychological medium that plays liaison between dreams and reality. For centuries, people with this special gift—the ability to see beauty, and therefore(many times) truth—have made r ecords of their surroundings and experiences.

Early poets, called troubadours, took inspiration from the ancient Greek conception of the lyric poem as a vocal composition1. These poets traveled medieval Europe, specifically southern France, incorporating the peoples’ informal musical styles and rhythms.

Of course, since then, poetry has drastically changed. It has evolved, as have the poets who sculpt it. Greats like Elizabeth Barrett Browning have made poetry a messenger of politics, philosophy and humanity. Propelled by the American fusing of cultural traditions, poetry has taken on a new visage in recent years, causing an avalanche of loose adherence to form. Accordingly, modern poetry incorporates a mess of variables, and sometimes languages.

Though styles may have changed, the potency of poetry never will. Let the power within you manifest itself through your words. Learn to use language liberally, stretching skeptical arguments, dipping into diversity, and yenning for yourself a deeper meaning of life. Command diction, damn (stop) connotations and sauté sizzling stanzas. Charge verbs. Distort proverbs. Whatever.

Poetry is what you make it. It can carry a message of redemption or despondency, affinity for—or odium toward—life. Through it, you can escape to a world of your word colors. Sneak there when you feel alone, when you fear; walk through your pain and into the light. Make it your individual deposition.

Answer 3

Poetry is an attempt to verbalize subjective feelings. Good poetry miraculously transmit subjective feelings which words absorb and contain to the reader, making feelings factually experienced..

Here's one I wrote:

I've sent a message on the wind,
To tell of love that might have been,
And though these thoughts were never know
Who knows what grows when thoughts are sewn.

The hour is late, time running fast
Down corridors of broken glass,
And mirrors that mist with every tear I shed.
Oh, how I dread,
The passing of the years ahead.

The flames of youth will dim, go dark,
The long gate close me off the road,
But I have sent a message, and
The wind will know what I have told.

I've sent a message on the wind,
And sealed it with my living breath,
That it should be the kiss of life,
And not the kiss of death.

I've sent a message very far,
Buit gave up asking where we go from here,
For where we go, I have no fear---
The wind will know.
