What is a
poem

A poem as I can define it is a set of carefully selected

words put together in a musical frame to serve
certain purposes such as delivering a message. It
is full of images, emotions and sensations. It could
. be a painting drawn with words
A poem is a piece of writing in which the words are
chosen for their beauty and sound and are
carefully arranged, often in short lines which
rhyme (Collins Cobuild, 2001)

What is a

According to Richard and Platt (1985, p. 167),

linguistics is "the study of language as a system of
". human communication
Linguistics is the science that studies language
poetry is the art of employing language in serving
certain purposes and creating images using poetic
language
. therefore linguistic and poetry are inseparable
there is a strong bond, if we might say, between
poetry and linguistics because language is the tool
that is used to compose a poem or it is the
. container that poets choose their vocabulary from
A poet therefore should have a unique sense and
. command of the language
A poem is not only a number of words put together ; a
poet should take the linguistic aspects into

and the way the elements next

Poetry reveals the beauty and the

strength of any language ,so if need our
children to be fluent we should teach
them poetry. Arabs used to send their
children to the desert to learn fluency as
well as accuracy from the native
inhabitants of the desert who mastered
the Arabic language instinctively.
Therefore English is not an exception . Its
true that it is not possible to send all our
students to the USA or the United
Kingdom to learn English from native
speakers ,but we ,for sure, can bring the
language to them through several ways
next
and poetry is one of them
