My experience with poetry has been between good and hard. In the beginning, it was a bit hard trying to write poetry because I thought it had to be written in a certain way, I also thought that it had to rhyme. But as classes passed I, figured that it didn’t have to rhyme or be written in a specific way. So that is when poetry became easier for me, I just had to know what I was writing about and made sure it made sense. Poetry is a beautiful type of literature because you don’t have to follow a template as you would on an essay, in poetry as long as you know what you are writing and as long as it means something to you that is good enough.
