  4. Poetry is a rhythmic sequence of words. To me it seems more fluent and if you want to write something but you don't want to write a paragraph this is a great way to do it, because there are many different ways you can write poetry. It describes emotion in some cases but you can write it describing other things. Many people around the world writes poetry. It can rhyme, be random, describe emotion, describe the things around you and a lot of other things you could think of. They are easy to write and when it's all done it has a nice sequence.

  5. Poetry is a special story that means something important to something or someone. Like life, a place, and love. There is so much poetry out there that means even more than life, a place, and love.

  12. Poetry to me is when there is a series of sentences that have some rhyming words. Poetry to me sounds like they are incomplete sentences and sometimes make you feel scared, happy, mad, sad, or any emotional feelings. Some poetry is in lines that are grouped for a specific reason.

  13. Poetry is a form of artistic writing. There doesn't have to be a purpose to it. You could do it to inform, persuade, entertain, or just for fun. Some people think that poems have to rhyme but that is not true. It doesn't matter what you write it about either. You could write it about your favorite holiday or your pet. It's easy to do.

  14. Poetry is a form of writing that hides a message through the stanzas and lines. It can be short or long rhyme or doesn't have to rhyme. Poetry can be used to express your feelings or just to write about something.

  15. Poetry is when you right in a specific amount of liens, words, and syllables to depict a picture in the readers mind. It can possibly make you relate to the writers feelings. Or it can describe an amazing food or place. It can possibly rhyme, putting a catchy tune in the readers mind, letting them enjoy the poem more.

  16. Poetry is an expression of one's feelings using words. Poems can be about anything from a dog to the author's deep feelings. Although poems are not required to rhyme, some poems include a rhyming pattern which, to me, makes it seem to flow smoother. Poetry is set aside from regular writing because there does not always have to be a storyline, but there still can be. Poems can just be about what you see when you look out your window rather than a trip to the building outside your window.

  17. Poetry is a group of words combined into lines joining into a paragraph of some sort called a stanza. It can or can't portray a message that relates to you or the author. Somewhere deep inside poetry is a message. Poetry can or can't make sense. You can write almost anything in poetry. Many express their feelings through poetry.

  31. Poetry is a form of writing that the author uses to express their feelings. Even though most poems rhyme they don't have to. Lots of people love poetry although I don't. I think maybe the reason why I don't like it is because I can never think of what to write about. If I had to pick a favorite type, though, it would have to be a haiku because they are short and sweet and get straight to the point.

  34. Poetry to me is a group of words put together in stanzas to tell a story or entertain. To many people there is a different definition. To some its to express feelings or just a different form of a paragraph. Poetry can express feelings, but I think that it is mostly to tell people different things in a creative manner, be it funny or sad.

  49. Poetry is a form of writing that expressing feelings or is trying to get a basic message to you. It doesn't even need to make sense, it can be random words and still be poetry. One example of writing is a haiku. It follows the syllables 5, 7, 5 in each line. Also, a line in poetry could be just part of a sentence. You could take one sentence and split in half and bam, you have two lines of poetry. A group of lines in poetry is called a stanza. I think a stanza looks kind of like a paragraph in a piece of writing. You could probably have an unlimited amount of stanzas in your poetry. I don't like poetry as much as regular stories because I think I understand stories better than poetry. However, sometimes I like poetry better if it actually makes sense or rhymes.

  51. Poetry is a way to describe your feelings in a stanza. They're like sentences, but instead they’re longer. Poetry doesn't have to have a moral, it could be anything you want it to be about. There is no rule that tells you that your poetry is wrong. You get to express your feelings in a way that no one will judge you.

  57. Poetry is a type of writing where you can express your feelings. It can have meaning, but at the same time it can be totally random. The words you use don't have to make sense as long as you put a plot to the poem. Sometimes a poem can rhyme or have a beat to it. The author might put a tone to the poem which is difficult to understand as well.

  72. poetry to me is a rhyming or not rhyming piece of writing that can make sense or doesn't have to. Today, we usually think of poetry as rhyming. such as after every other sentence there's a new line for it like:
    hello.
    I'm new to the school.
    can you help me?
    I need to find this class.

  73. Poetry is a piece of writing that sometimes rhymes but doesn't have to. It has stanza wich are like a paragraph for a novel. It has a beat and tells you how they feel or describe something. A poem is talking about a subject that they chose and is thinking of things that remind you of it. For example:

    The rain was pattering on the window soft and sweet
    It had a nice little rapatap tap making a good beat
    Like a song it was beautiful and full of pleasure
    It will keep you till the very last measure.

    There are many kinds of poems. An acrostic is using a letter for something. Like J- jumpy A-awing c-courageous and do on. There are also concrete poems which are poems made into the shape of what you are writing so for my poem about rain I could make a raindrop. limerick - A limerick is a funny little poem containing five lines. and a huikiu which we already did.

  74. Poetry is kind of like a short story because it doesn’t have full sentences all the time. Poems have moods like they can make you happy, sad, angry, or excited. There are also different styles of poetry an example is haiku. Each type of poem is different like they can have different moods, different reasons like inform, entertain, and persuade, different styles, different tones and different structures.

  75. Poetry can be any form of writing. It can inform you, entertain you, and sometimes persuade you. You would normally see entertainment, but they can they can inform you such as making a poem about a historic event. Persuasive poems are harder to right and find. You can choose to rhyme every line or every other line. You can also choose to have no words that rhyme. Another thing poetry can have a certain amount of syllables per line. It is set up into stanzas and might have a refrain. A poem can even be just a few lines. They can put you into different moods as well. They can be happy and cheerful or deep and dark.

  76. Poetry can be many things. Their are many forms of poetry such as Haiku's, Dramatic monologue, free verses, and lots more.To me a poem is a short story that is describing someone or somethings mood. They can also be describing a certain situation. Poems are usually fantasy and don't always make a whole lot of sense. Poems such as haiku's usually do not make sense mainly because a lot of them are not complete sentences.

  77. Poetry can be serious or it could be hilarious. There could be stanzas that rhyme or it could be just a regular old writing. It could be about something or someone. When I see a poem, I notice that it is usually shorter and is not as wide.

  78. Poetry is a somewhat short yet inspiring piece of writing. It is written in short, choppy lines. It's split into stanza's that are equivalent to paragraphs in an actual piece of writing. poetry can be about the most random things! Technically, every song is poetry. The mood and tone of the poem can change the whole thing around.
