Anti-bullying message in my poem “Defiance Is The Name”
Babywrites, thanks for your informative and valuable comment on my post.
Bullying is not ok. I have seen so many students suffer from bullying as a teacher. If one reads the poem without the back message it can be interpreted totally differently.
I read posts about poetry not being a great money earner due to them “being short reads” on Medium too. But I do like writing poetry. I discover it to be a hidden passion when I started writing on Medium.
I like your statement:
“…any of the poems I posted would just be for myself then, and anyone else that got internal value from them.”
I’m writing poetry to express ideas/emotions. I found it to be great therapy for myself.
If someone else benefits from my poetry it is a bonus.
