The beauty of poetry is that it does not conform to just one meaning or style. Each person could have a different point of view and a different analysis, leading to various different interpretations of the same piece. However, the one aspect that remains common is that poetry leads to awareness as it touches someone’s soul. The writer can pour his or her heart out and share their perspectives on issues or observations they would like to talk about. Students could share their perspectives, by sharing their poetry. Through the process, they would receive constructive feedback to improve their writing skills as well as get a platform for recognition and to inspire more people to step forward and share their story in the form of poetry. This would lead to an understanding of diverse perspectives and current issues, personal and community growth, and hopefully, a more self-aware tomorrow.
