Dear writer/reader,

I need you to take yourself through this brief poetry lesson...

Poetry is how we give meaning to our feelings and thoughts,
It is not merely stringing words together,
But putting something out there,
That someone else can relate to
Or merely draw inspiration from.
It is a recipe for criticism,
But within reason.

So, go on and let these words be the mouthpiece for your head and heart.

Sincerely yours,
(noma)Freedom
This was inspired by someone on this site who mentioned how something I had written was MEANINGLESS.
A mind that fails to develop its own interpretation of someone's words is one that is oblivious to understanding, so let's not put others down simply because we don't entirely agree with what they choose to put out on their personal pages :)
