My experience with poetry validates the reality that many see it as a misunderstood and complicated genre. Any book that helps people to enjoy while analyzing poetry is simply beautiful. I hope this book will find its way to the right audience. Thanks for a lovely review.

Poetry always brings back a sense that Shakespeare is back in the room. And that signifies a homely and trusting feeling for a lot of us. Especially in dark times. It helps lighten a mood and soften the spiritual eyes. I loved the review because it reminded to me what I long for as an adult in a hard and difficult life.
Thank you so very much , for now I want to read this book. Congratulations on BOTD!

Poetry is my least favorite genre, so I will be passing on this one. I like that the author added humor to make his lessons about poetry easier to digest. Thanks for the review! :tiphat:

I like the poems because the author has taken their time to break down how to interpret poems in the "12 commandments". Great review.

Poetry is a form of art that needs to be appreciated a lot and I am, glad the author can help people do that by firstly helping them understand poetry a lot. I love this book as it offers a lot of insight into this great form of art and helps readers to clearly comprehend poetry writing. Also, this book is of great interest to me because I am an aspiring poetess and have been for some time now. Congratulations to the author on this masterpiece and thank you for this interesting review.
