Exploring Poetry Collections
I introduce a range of poetry collections that cater to diverse tastes. From classic to contemporary, there's something for everyone. I'll guide you on how to pick collections that resonate with you, making your poetry journey both enjoyable and personal.
How to Digest a Poem
Understanding a poem can sometimes be challenging. I share techniques on how to dissect and savour poems, discussing the importance of themes, structure, and language. This segment aims to make poetry more accessible and relatable.
The Role of Community in Poetry
Poetry is not just about reading; it's about sharing and discussing. I highlight the significance of forming connections within the poetry community, including joining book clubs or online forums, where you can share interpretations and gain new perspectives.
Letting Go of Preconceptions
Poetry often carries a stigma of being difficult or elitist. I address these misconceptions and offer advice on approaching poetry with an open mind. This part of the video aims to break down barriers and encourage a more relaxed and enjoyable approach to poetry.
Whether you're dipping your toes into the world of poetry or seeking to enrich your existing love for it, this video is for you. Join me in exploring the beauty and depth of poetry, and discover how it can enrich your life in unexpected ways.

Thank you for sharing your thoughts and help on poetry Adam. I’ve gone and purchased ‘Poems that make men cry.’ as I’m really wanting to pull back the lid on differing styles to better my own writing and reflection. I will also pop on over to your community site to hopefully meet fellow poets and maybe share some of my own. Thanks again. Very much appreciated. 🙂
Comments like this are what I do it all for! I think you made a very smart move getting this book! A wide range of poems, and great insights introducing each one! Hope to see you over on the Cove! Some really great poets and people over there which I’m sure will happily welcome you to the community!
Really e joyed this one Adam you looked really happy ❤
Thanks Delgirl! I’m feeling great! A big part of that is down to all of you subscribers for really getting me motivated for RUclips again! 🙏🖤
How you doing mate? Great to see you're still making videos encouraging people into poetry, it was after all, one of your videos some years ago, that kick-started my writing adventure. All the best mate ❤
Well done!! 🫶💜
Thank you Tanya! I really appreciate it all!
Nice video!
I'm a bit late to the party but I thought those were good advice. I think it's a good idea to read a poem 3 times, even I, who appreciate and write poetry, I find myself often reading poems too quickly most of the time, I will definitively try to do that more.
I also agree that poetry is the most intimate form of art, each form of art has something special to it, but I don't think that any of them reach the level of intimacy that poetry does.
I think it's good to try to make people appreciate poetry more, I also want to achieve that with my channel, but I have a lot more work to do.
I subscribed.
Thanks Adam, I enjoyed this video with your suggestions for getting the most out of poetry. I have followed many of your older editions and find they too are very interesting. Thanks a lot and please keep going.
Hi Diane, thank you so much for taking the time to leave such a thoughtful comment, I appreciate that! I’m glad you are finding the videos useful, means I’m doing something right! 🙏🖤
Neat video Adam. I’m a guy who only recently started writing poetry a couple months ago. This is my latest one called Letters of Love about a young woman who loses her husband during the Vietnam War. What do you think?
He had to leave me to go fight in this cruel war.
He gave me a kiss and his hat to remember him by.
He wrote to me every week with words of hope and promises.
He sent letters of love talking about our future family together and house.
He talked about how he misses my smile and laugh.
He then stopped writing and came home in a wooden box.
He and I won’t have our future family together and house.
He has stopped sending me letters of love.
I’m so sorry for your loss. I hope you found the process of writing this therapeutic? I’m a staunch advocate for using poetry as a means of release and therapy! Blessings and keep at it! 🙏🖤
Ooops, I just re-read your comment. It was not long after 6am and I am only one coffee in haha! Still, the sentiment remains: keep it up!
I’m actually an avid reader of war history, particularly ww1 & 2. There’s some really Great War poetry out there, have you read any of the ww1 poetry collections? You might enjoy them
