Poetry Message

A poetry is a collection of words that expresses author's emotion or idea sometimes with as specific rhythm or rhyme Poet uses a figure of speech that makes a comparison between two things that are basically different but something in common The metaphor does not use the words 'like' or 'as' But some poetry has words 'like' or 'as' that is called a simile The two poetic techniques are almost always there, but not seen Poetry is a feeling that author wants the reader to understand Sometimes a heart breaking arrow shattering or even joyful sunny day like when you were born Poetry is a gift that everyone can write People use poetry in novels and narratives Some lines have animals, objects or human qualities The words fill the page with imagery to give feelings Describing the plain into special words It uses the five senses So that the readers can touch and taste Readers can smell Readers can see Readers can hear Poems are like crumbs of a cookie All you just have to do Is to select the right words And make the reader sense Feel the feelings that you've put into It's like stars They sing with heart They try to send you a message About their experiences How they've felt in the sticky situations Some poets uses words that aren't in the dictionary Those words might be sound words Explosion sounds maybe spelled, "BOOM!" or "MEOW" Those words are called onomatopoeia Some poems are so still without them It makes the poet feel not right They feel like something is missing That's what poets think about Reading it over and find out what's missing to deliver When poets give an animal, object, idea, or human qualities That's called a personification When words dances into your mind Imagining the worded movements Sometimes it's just so easy that you miss them Some poems have alliteration The fist consonant sound is repeated In several words In the same line of a poem like Something slid solemnly stood Poetry is a great kind of writing If you're the kind of person Who doesn't like that much writing You might fall for this writing Because this kind of writing you need time Poetry is a great kind of writing If you're the kind of person Who loves to express your feelings You might like this kind of writing Because this kind of writing you need heart
