Poetry is an amazing world of vivid images and rhymes that has been accompanying human life for several millennia. Poetry is necessary for the whole society as a whole: for both authors and readers. Why do people need poetry?
Poetry is a special form of human self-expression, the language of the soul, a vocation, a rare divine gift, the ability to rhythmically express one's inner state or attitude to the world around in clearly chosen words.
For poets, poetry is one of the main meanings of life. Poets are deeply feeling people who vitally need to be in the creative process in order to express accumulated thoughts and emotions. Lack of inspiration, a creative crisis for a poet is a serious problem, especially if his income directly depends on the fruits of poetry.
Young children need to read and memorize poetry in order to develop memory, imagination, in a word, intellectual abilities. In addition, getting acquainted with poetry, the child will probably try to compose his own poems. With talent and a craving for versification, a person with the help of poetry can already in childhood determine his future vocation.

Poems help readers to experience certain sensations, to be inspired by the play on words and the originality of the poet's thinking. Also, poetry is a great gift for a birthday or any other holiday.
