What quality do you most like about poetry?

Well,what is very important in poetry is a style,diction as well. When you read some poem you expect to find something there,a beauty itself,hope or sense,the depth. That's very important,the depth of feelings written on the paper that are so truly and deep,even a bit mysterious. Metaphor can be used in a very interesting way that gives a poem its charm and meaning of course. Let your heart floating freely... ;)

Lately I have found that I love poems that are simplistic in the words, but the whole poem itself has a more deep metaphoric meaning to it.

i like that most of the people are very sincere when they write, and how they can show all their feeling in a poem..

the quality i like most about poetry is when it truly speaks 2 the heart and soul,when u can connect with it whether it makes u smile ,makes u think/wonder,or when u also think has this happened 2 a person or has it happened 2 me.

Hmmm ....

Words float in .... no. That's not good enough! Ugh!

The thought's drift, not sure what the meaning will apear to be. The meaning is a secret, and this whisper is lost in the thread of a silk ribbon. Little do you know, the surounding thread are the meaningful words that will lead you to the answer . ..... Wow, I have no idea where I am going with this.

My point is, I like that poems aren't strait forward and hides the true meaning. I like the poems even more if it takes me two times to understand the point of the poem. It is hard to explain why I love this quality .....
