How to Write a Poem - What is a Poem?

John Scott, Maria Flores, Dawn of a New Discovery, Bengali Flower, March 2009, Newark, NJ

Part of the purpose of this book, is to help young people to develop their interests in poetry. Children and youths are bombarded with media images that often times have violence and sex. Poetry can be both a catharsis, a source of creativity, it can help a teen develop feelings of self-worth, and it can encourage an exchange of ideas in ways that might be difficult in prose.

Also, with the United States, Europe, Australia, and so many other places in the world becoming hosts to millions of persons from Asia, Africa and other countries, learning about foreign cultures through poetry, can contribute to greater tolerance and understanding of ways of life that we might be totally unfamaliar with.

The first chapter, and a recurring them through Dawn of a New Discovery, is that of India and other Asian countries as noted above.

The poets profile sections in every chapter will expose most to the lives of some of the most well know poets, and some that most readers will be unfamiliar with. Rabindranath Tagore from Calcutta and Bangladesh has some of the finest poetry, and two of his poems and a brief biography are featured here as well.

Dabs of psychology, the plight and turmoil of youth, love, loyalty, sacrifice, heroism, and hope are also highlighted in individual poems.

Poems are both original and carefully compiled.

We hope you enjoy this illustrated poetic journey.
