Poetry

“We don’t read and write poetry because it’s cute. We read and write poetry because we are members of the human race. And the human race is filled with passion. And medicine, law, business, engineering, these are noble pursuits and necessary to sustain life. But poetry, beauty, romance, love, these are what we stay alive for.” (Dead Poets Society 1989)

If you too agree with the statement above, this category is for you. Here, our young journalists use their creativity to write personal, heartfelt pieces of art.

Whether we talk about their own poems or their interpretation on texts by renowned authors, our writers will surely awaken your spirit and hopefully inspire you to pick up the pen.

Let your imagination run wild and join us in the mesmerizing lyrical world!
