5 Poetry Books

One can not just disagree with this - Poetry is the most beautiful way to evoke emotions in us. It has the power to bring life and vision to inanimate things. Everybody needs a little dose of it, be it soothing, brazen, or heart-wrenching, and once you’re into it, it’s hard to pull back. Poetry can deeply move you, be as dreamy as it sounds, gives you strength, and melts your heart into a flowing river of feelings. It can be your most wonderful escape and your utmost devastating emptiness. 

It can serve as your biggest motivation at times or be your favourite distraction. Poetry readers and writers can all resonate well with this, we bet!
