Poets are interesting people. They are creative and sensitive. They think in different ways and in new directions. Find out about the craft of poetry and how it can make your mind open and nimble. Also, writing is a worthwhile way to express yourself, whether it be as poetry or in a journal entry. You can form ideas, jot down poetic fragments, or your journal could contain your research on poetic craft. Journals can contain other things too: your dreams, your meals, little jokes that you know. Write things down: You have so much to say. You could use either an actual journal, or a binder with paper, or your computer to save paper. I encourage you to voice your thoughts. Nobody ever has to see them. Its for your benefit to be able to sort your ideas, views, and opinions into a written form that makes sense to you. Find the poetry in your soul.
