I do agree with you fully, though I don't speak Persian. I think that the great Sufi and poet Hafez  was and remains a prodigious one and of my favourite ( never mind the time).Especially, his love verses, so pure and touching.\nNice question.\nHave a great day!

Poets express themselves through word and poems...they poeticize!

Thinking about Bill, Dead of AIDS"\n\nby Miller Williams\n\nI really liked this poem because it makes I think the poet wants us all to feel how horrible it would be to have AIDS. At one point in the poem he says "thinking of friends afraid to shake your hand", I cannot even imagine what it would be like if one of my friends would refuse to touch my hand.\n\nAlthough this poem is really sad, it hits home a lot and makes us feel that we should feel sorry for people who get AIDS because of the amazing suffering they go through. It would be very tough. Now more than ever does this poem get it's point across. \n\nAnother thing I noticed about this poem is that how much the poet loved Bill. He says they had more, they would have given it to him. That shows that they gave all their love and effort and it could still not keep him alive. It is a very good poem and one we should all read and think about. i read this poem on the net its alright

OMG OMG I ABSOLUTELY LOVE WORDS!!!!!!! I AM THE WORD FREAK OF MY SCHOOL I CARRY A DICTIONARY AND THESAURUS TO EVERY CLASS AND MY NICKNAMES ARE MISS WEBSTER 2006 AND DICTIONARY GIRL!!! I LOVE IT WHEN PEOPLE ASK ME THIS QUESTION!! It's hard to choose though!! I love them all so much! Okay, one of my favorites would have to be idiosyncratic, which means weird in one's own way, or strangely unique! My newest favorite is pneumonoultramicroscopicsilico-\nvolcanoconiosis, which is a supposed disease contracted from the overinhalation of silica dust. The disease does not really exsist, but that word is still my favorite, because it is the longest one I know! And, I can flawlessly spell it without looking! I have yet to find the longest word ever, though, but I can do it!

You luuuuuv poetry thats for sure, to think of so much stuff is great. I like it however I find myself confused about the meaning. Are you making fun of passion or beeing coy? I think you are holding back! Don't be shy, there is alot of "passion" in your poetry. Don't hold back!

I'm guessing that you are in High School.  My advice is NOT to go get someone else's opinion on a poem.  What does the poem make YOU think about?  What do the images mean to YOU?  How do you feel after reading the poem?  That is what your teacher is looking for--- NOT for your on-line web-searching skills.  There is a good book called Understanding Poetry but Cleanth Brooks and Robert Penn Warren that can help you think for yourself, though.

I've just been to a great poetry site. I was reading the different love poems. I've been in a relationship for the past few months that has been exquisitely painful. This beautiful poem describes my feelings exactly.\n\n http://www.netpoets.com/poems/sadlove/1503001.htm \n\nI'm pretty much addicted to him. The joy has been indescribable, and the separation is heartbreaking. I will never be the same.

I think this is a great question (opportunity really) to get some of us closet writers to post our own writing...maybe even get some fun feedback, or just enjoy reading some other writer’s work as well. So, thanks for the chance. Well here is one of my earlier poems:\n\n"A Passing, Sulfur-Green Passion"\n\nThose green eyes, once filled with rage-rampant fire,\nFueled a whim obsessed fervor that partook of every desire.\n\nNot once did any glance go unrewarded in a closed-door fashion—\n   A youthful body withered by long nights of unprotected (un-sustained) passion. \n\nFeeling ephemeral stares, \nImagining they seek out what lurks behind badly salt-stained eyes, omens-old\nShe is forever surrounded by sulfur-smoke, \nLost in sustained moment of grey-cold.\n \nAnd those wet orbs cannot receive a spark of compassion\n \n   For anyone’s love.

Dude I love Francesca Lia Block. I never knew anyone else did. Her writing style is so beautiful and enrapturing. Her words make me want to cry sometimes. I loved Rose and The Beast: Fairy Tales Retold. My favorite retelling was probably of Sleeping Beauty (story name Charm) How she was addicted to heroin so in a sense she was asleep. She combines fantasy with the harsh realities of life and makes it seem a little bit easier to deal with. I LOVE FLB!
