For me English is a second language and I Teach it to Master level students but abroad no one believes me since I am not a native.

It is more meaning, all those rules that are sometimes placed in poetry are chains; barriers.<br /><br />Erick FloresAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06838425722247850036noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5074891590264251510.post-79375010852503651932011-12-06T00:20:15.045-08:002011-12-06T00:20:15.045-08:00I love this!..I feel the same way.

And I would rather a poem I can understand, than one spoken in abstracts and big fancy words that everyone 'oohs' and 'ahhs' over but has no clue what the writer is really saying!! Excellent point in this Charlie, thanks for sharing.Ginny Brannanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15298060016652737538noreply@blogger.com
