Literacy

LITERACY Why do you read poems, what is in it for you? Getting insights, awareness, discernments, visions. Reading makes you a better writer, it connects your emotions, experiences and exposes you to other types, forms, styles, genres, voices of writing. Why do you write and what is your main objective? To reflect on your feelings, emotions, experiences that are in your thoughts, thoughts running in your head finding their way out that you express in words. That is plain literacy in action, read and write. Now, what do you want to do with your writings? Share, relay them to others and maybe, they can relate to what you are expressing, telling, writing. How would you draw the readers in, pique their interests? With the title of your poem, conveying the subject of the poem for the title is the first thing the readers see and read. The title should catch the readers’ interest to read the poem and tell what you want them to think while reading the poem. Consider expressive, vivid, poignant, emotional words and imagery that can arouse the readers’ emotions and interests. 5/2/21 What's In A Title In 14-20 Lines Poetry Line Gauthier Checked: PS Grammar Checker

Indeed, I have had many readers comment that they read my poem because of my title. The title is THE most important part of the poem. It is the hook that catches the reader. Nicely written, Marilene.
