Youth And Poetry

The definition of youth poetry is the art of writing, showing more imaginative and deep emotions, ie ordinary speech. Poetry is a gathering of meaningful vocabulary, but for some reason young people do not understand it. Mr. Hugh McLennan said, "Because there is no poetry, these young people are poor." He points to a group of teenagers he met, but this sentence can directly target the majority of today's teenagers. Poetry is dead in our life.

In commemoration of the National Poetry Month, SafeKids is committed to celebrate youth, poetry, art, and its performance video. Thanks to Becky Sinkler and SafeKidsStories, the two brutal poets already know that when someone is listening there, it is powerful to tell the truth. They know that they do not need to stop their people like a mentor like Becky, and Becky sees the possibility of their humanity and genius.
