Whats your feelings on poetry?

sometimes, through poetry we may get the answers from very small and trivial things.to make it big and complex.

It's great! What else is there to read in public restrooms?

Its art :)

dude its awesome it depends what kind of poetry though

Honestly, it bores me to no end.

It probably depends on the poetry. I prefer the slightly spontaneous, playful poetry, but I also like limericks and haikus. But I really don't think that question is going to be very useful to you. Try narrowing it down just a bit. Also, I as a reader find all the sentimental stuff just a bit too much. But that's my opinion. I can't speak for all people, nor can the good people on Yahoo! Answers.

Um...poetry...it just makes you feel kind of weird, huh? Well, poetry about nature is the best. Making a poem about peanut butter or something dumber like a sticker is stupid! Make a poem that will make people think for a moment. My teacher taught us this saying by the painter Monet. "There are no lines in nature." We had no idea what he meant.

There once was a girl who said: Why cant I look in my ear with my eye? I'm sure I can do it, if i put my mind to it. You never can tell 'till you try. Take a lit class where you learn analysis and you'll see for yourself. Stick with what you know.

I like all poetry. I just wish I could write it... Well with one exception. I despise "poetry" written by dumb teens about slitting their wrists and committing suicide because they got dumped and noone understands them.
