With the Christmas season approaching, we see famous examples of both poetry and prose. For example, the poem “‘Twas the Night Before Christmas” by Clement Clarke Moore, or the novel A Christmas Carol by Charles Dickens. Do you prefer one form over the other?
Share why if you wish.
Poetry Or Prose?
This is, perhaps, one of the most difficult throwdowns for me. I love reading political and pop scientific books and magazines. That noted if songs fit in the poetry category, I love how the backing instrumentation helps you interpret the meaning of a song. And different interpretations of a song show you how malleable words are.
Okay, I go with poetry.
Poetry!
