Do You Love Poems?

[wasi90lk]

I think poems can be quite awesome, but I do not really waste time on reading or writing poems.

What about you? Are you a poet? Do you love reading poems?

I'm not a poet and I've never read poems unless it was necessary when I was still going to school.

I wouldn't call myself a poet but a song writer.

I write a lot of songs and try to keep them for future use.

That is great to know, milksheikh. Do you want to share with us one of the songs that you wrote?

Ug, poems! I hate them.

The only thing I liked about them was they were short!

I love poems! Do you listen to music? That is actually poetry! Some poems can be hard to understand, but that is what intrigues me.

I do not think songs can be considered as poetry. Songs are kind of different to me.

You may not consider a song poetry but in actuality, songs literally are poems.
This explains it but it is quite long...

Thanks for the link.

Unfortunately I still am not convinced that songs can be poetry. Poetry is a bit more complex than regular songs, in my opinion.

I really can't stand poetry. I just don't care about the lining of syllables, the rhymes. If you want to say something, say it, don't make a poem about it
