-j - ■■'i Ah Etoetry I BY PRESTON H. MH|ES A Literature is divided into two great -classes, jjoetry and prose. DefiViers tel lis that, poetry is the .expression of thought hi a technical arfmgvment of si> Aiat the accents co ne at regular it is ea c y to recog'ii/.e this, form, Gt pct elry must express a high quality ci tliouglit also, and t is upon that definers d.ifler i‘ . ver, somepeojle do not Bay so-much stress’upon the •ought of poetry, B>ut rather upon the "m, technical: accent, or musical qualify. This is based on ‘.he,fact that poetry .ha<l its origin in our lore for rythni, and 'because of tjfts fact peytry endures. If ..this l>e true, then thfer.lr-ery rhymes, ( ct '.which, when Ave chanteU them, we di/1 n<>t know the meaning,- kre true poems. These are all very niusicil, but few of us ) would class them tinder tie reverent head ' of poetry . 1 ' Some of of our greatest Voems are not musical, In fact, only a fkw of them. . Why, then, do; not pie's disregard th poetic form altogether? yVe still I >vt rvthm,— sot» that is a part of our nature ' ■——but there has been such van advance- j ingnt intellectually since poetry liad its origin that we demand be some-i thing to make us think. A poetic thought, would be beautiful in prose, but it may anouse more of our appreciation for it by also appealing to our love of rythm. Iliad Burns said, “My love is ’ike a red rqse newly sprung in June, or like a.' me bdy sweetly'played,”, it would not mean as much as— .1 “Oh, my hive’s like-a red. rqfi rosb That’s iiewly sprung in June; ■ ° Oh, mv hive’s like a melodic . That’s sweetly played in time.” I’petrv, then, must- contain thought! However' the thought must be beiiutifiil, ciJ poetic. Beaut Th thought dols not necessarily inean'lotty thought. In tray s “hue plow mini homeward, ’plods v his wear, way' is a simple pictiuxmid is beautiful {because of the nkoiigh'tT-.-. associate with it 11-lssent ally, this iJ a picture of thb riculptnre is ai truthful the beautiful in form; paintinGFa truthful of the beaiaifiil-in color; music is a truthful representation of the beautiful in sound; end poetry is a truthful representation of the beautiful in thought. •. Since thbught is the highest attribute of mini, poetry is the highest art. Poetry is a result -of genius. Genius does not rely on season for the attainment of. truth. Full well.did Burns realize ' this when he.said, “Gie me de spark of Nature’s fire, . That’s all the learning.l desire; . Then tho’ I drudge thro’ dub and mire ■ 1 At plough or cart,. '• My Muse, tho’ homely in attire, ' . May touch the heart.” Poetry from the' soul itself. The truths depicted are deep-seated. To accept these truths is appreciation. The field of poetry is n' large one” M e that poetry must be a delineatiou of truth., but that does not narrow its scope,for the field of truth is also large. The truth r iii .poetry is not confined to literal ’ facts; 'it also includes the emotions. Passions which are base we do n<jt wislido incorporate into our character; because thev.are neither beautiful nor true: Because, poetry appeals to our finer sensibilities, it elevates.' When We read a’, poeiirthat appeals to us for the truth itcontains, we recognize that truth as always! having existed within usp though perhaps we never before realized it. If .this be the case, then our perception of i that truth is magnified, and we must-be tire better for it. This also includes the emotions. By reading poetry, our highest and- best emotions are excited, and this can have nothing but an elevating influence. Then again, poetry enlightens ! us on tlje many problems surrounding hui man existence. Perhaps some of us may ’ .be unable to cope o with these problems (and. most of us are.) in which case poetry •does serve its purpose. Poetry also acquaints a person with his inner self. It . follows then, that all poetry elevates, for it is not poetry unless does elevate. If a person reads a poem which does not appeal to something within him, and does not thereby elevate him, to-him It n°ipoetrv. Therefore, on this basis each ■must decide for himself as to what is poetry, and the greatneSs of a poem depends oil the extent to which lie is uplifted. / Some’ would have us think that poetry is not a recreation and must be studied to. Joe appreciated. It'istrue, there are a great 1 many of our poems which contain alluU sions to' history, literature itself, art, gelography, mythology, and so forth; this is H done to make more vivid the truths and pictures'therin contained. If you know wliat the ajlu'sious are made, you of the poem awl its purpos-.'. ■.^■^tudv- these ahusimis to get the M .. K ' -

up of the oles you like best. If you litie a poem, thefte is a reason for it, and the poems you like are the ones yon should read. It is the height of folly to read a poem only to be conversant with it when you really do not like it. This would be hyprperisy and the poetry would fail of its purpose. Do not wait for an universal opinion of a poem before y oifform your ( Own, for if like it, to you it is poetry and by you it should be classedyis such. When y6u have selected the poems you like, but little can be said of how to enjoy them. However, -. it is impossible for a person to appreciate a poem and at the same time not get the full enjoyment that should be his. ’ The reader should live with the poet; that is, his mood should be as near like the writer’s as he can make it. Unless he can do this, he gets simply the music of the word arrangement, and his time would be as well spent.on nursery rhymes. . I wonder if any of -you here- will find Sufficient of beauty and truth in the following to impel you to accept it as poetry; tiorning dawn.ed'-. the win I blew fairs y<>-. age of life I then resumed, I smoothly sailed, but not long,ere A tenlpest rose.
