How Do You Think About Poems?

Literature is one of the important subjects ,and takes a lot of time in courses in every country in the world. In addition, literature has many genres such as poetry, short stories and novels.One of the most interesting things in literature is poetry. In particular, in modern poetry, there is a rhythmic combination of melody and language, so when you read poetry, you think you are listening to a song.If short stories, or novels are made into movies, poetry is often made into music.86

How did you feel when you first read the poem? In my opinion, each country has many types of poetry, and different, but all have pleasant and melodious melodies. Moreover, most of the famous poems, and adapted into music, contain an unforgettable story and meaningful messages.45

I will tell you about the first time I read poetry, it was an unforgettable impression. I am a person who doesn’t like literature, because I get bored every time I study literature. However, the first time I learned about poetry, its meaning and genre, it made me interested in literature.Each poem contains its own writing rules and often at the end of the verse will have the same melody, so it makes an impression compared to stories and novels. Not only that, the verses contain, metaphor, compare, personalization, and onomatopoeia, it makes verses rich in meaning. At first when reading a verse you may have a difficult feeling, and want to learn it. After you read and analyze the words and rhymes, you will see an interesting mystery in the poem, and you probably will not forget the poem.
