POETRY..

can speak to you in all different ways, as you can see..
It can talk about pain,
or joy,
even depression.


For some poets, their life was made up of poetry.
Writing would cure their sadness or revive their happiness.
And for others writing would bring back memories..
Rita Dove: born in Akron, Ohio, in 1952. She served as Poet Laureate of the United States from 1993 to 1995. She wrote many books including Sonata Mulattica (W. W. Norton, 2009); American Smooth (2004); On the Bus with Rosa Parks (1999), which was named a New York Times Notable Book of the Year.
In her writing she brought back great memories in everyone's life.
On the Bus with Rosa parks, represented the unfairness between whites and african americans.
On December 1, 1955 Rosa Parks refused to give up her seat to make room for a white passenger. It helps us as basic human beings everything we've achieved and been through to get where we are today.


And that was a big moment in history that was reminded to us by a simple book.
