      Introduction

      Why Write Poetry?

      As a teen, teaching you how to write poetry is not really that different from teaching anyone else how to do it. Teenagers are stereotypically known for their angst, moodiness, emotional flair-ups, and difficult demeanor while on the way to becoming an adult. By acquiring the knowledge and skill of writing poetry, the tumultuous feelings you are experiencing can find an outlet and be written down. Hopefully, by communicating through poetry, you will be able to express your feelings in a way that makes you and others feel valuable, appreciated, and acceptable. This new talent will also help you learn how to sort out your feelings. Writing poetry gives you a place to go and be your best you each day.

      When no one wants to hear what you have to say, when no one cares what you think, or, you are under the impression that is true, poetry is good to have as an outlet to express yourself. Maybe your opinion or your viewpoints are unpopular. Pen and paper want to hear from you.
