Poetry Opinions

What are your opinions on poetry?
Favorite type? Do you even like it?

I firmly believe in expression through poetry, i myself write poetry a few times a week. From the age of 12 to 19 i wrote and wrote and wrote poems day in and day out. My sister and i collaborated and came up with an idea for a book of poetry where as my poems are dark and depressive, and my sisters poems are very light and serene almost giving a sense of solace and relaxation where we were to combine both forms of poetry in a light vs dark book one side being her poems and you physically flip the book over and upside down and my dark poems are present. I believe self expression through poetry is an excellent outlet for anyone to partake in.
