Response #6 find a poet

The poet that seemed appealing to me was A E Housman, because his or her poems seemed exciting to read. I could picture myself on a summer day when something goes bad. I felt like the poet have some strong emotions about the war, because he expressed a lot about people dead and never returning, and how the people made loud noises in thing in such manner. I think that he felt disturbed by the war when he or she was younger or some thing. I feel that the poet was apart of the war, because he puts so much detail about how the scene was with their noises and everything. I could picture myself standing on a battle field in the summer time ready to die to defeat some on else.

The poems connect to my life, because I express my self in ways of writing it down in poems or drawing pictures when I am angry or disturbed by something I didn’t like or disagreed with. I also some times seem calm when I am angry and in the poets poems the person seems to choose calm but meaningful words to express their feelings. Some times I feel like I am ready to defeat my dad when he makes me mad and willing to die over it if I am that angry.

My personal definition of poetry is a way to express your self in any way or style whether it rhymes or not, to express happy and sad thoughts.
