Poetry

   When I hear the word poetry I always think of my eighth grade English class where we did tons of poetry.  Personally poetry is my favorite unit in English.  When we were learning about poetry last year we were required to write about four original poems.  You had do a haiku, a limerick, and two free verse poems...I did four free verse.  After that I felt inspired and wrote more.  I now have a mini booklet of poetry that I have written.
   I feel that poetry is extremely important in our lives.  If you can respect poetry then you can respect an other's thoughts and feelings for poetry is a way to let all of that out and let people know how you feel.  When I hear the word poetry I think of an outburst of emotion and feeling and thought and everything that has been bottled up inside.  That is why poetry is important.
