Whenever the topic of poetry emerges in classrooms worldwide, it’s no
doubt met with subtle moans and groans of displeasure. To be fair, not everyone
finds such subjects as nature, the animal world, and the vague musings of old
white-haired men particularly appealing. Despite how it’s perceived, though,
poetry is nonetheless a vital form of expression that must be appreciated and
preserved for posterity, so it’s always welcome when it can be recognized and
celebrated for the cultural bastion that it is - which is what makes such volumes as
Poetically Speaking so much more meaningful.
Throughout the pages of her insightful collection, poet Georgette Lee
introduces young readers to the multitude of useful ways in which poetry can be
applied in everyday expression. She also highlights the various poetic forms that
exist, such as haiku and acrostics, each of which possesses its own unique creative
appeal. Combining her presentations with fun, enlightening examples, Lee makes
the traditionally arduous task of learning about poetry an engaging, edifying treat.
A richly rewarding literary debut, Poetically Speaking is sure to foster a
deep-rooted poetic appreciation in readers of all ages. Kudos to Lee for crafting a
well-rounded, celebratory tribute to the ever-underrated art form.
