What I have learned poetry

Through the last couple classes I have learned some valuable tips for poetry. One of which is that when poetry is read out loud it can sound different of even mean something different. A poem can have many different things hidden inside of it and when a poem is taking apart and looked at you can get a different meaning from it then before. When going through our poems in our groups in class i just looked at the basics of it and took what i got from reading it the first time. After we had taking the time to go through the whole poem and talk about each section i got sooo much more then before because i got to build off of my original thought. I have always loved reading poems because i found a long time ago that i could relate to many of them. I can always find at least one part of a poem that i can relate to or i eventually relate to in my life. I sometimes get down honestly because it tugs and my feelings and i think that is the best poetry because you can feel it and it means something.
