Okay, I’ll say it. I hated poetry. I really did. Until this year. Before, I thought that poetry was really just mushy nonsense. But it’s not. To me, good poetry is like music: it has layers of subtle meaning that you don’t quite get at first. It fits together. Creating it is an art. I enjoy writing nature poetry and nonsense poems because it’s a way to put down my thoughts beautifully or hilariously. I found writing nonsense poetry very challenging, but fun. Writing about nature is almost mindless for me, recreating scenes of the beauty that I am lucky enough to see every day. I often write thematic poems about sadness. It helps me to get my feelings out in writing. I wanted to say that being sad is normal and okay.
Poetry fills the air
Music
An art
Sadness
Beauty
Natural
Perfect
