About
Poets create poetry - a type of literature that uses aesthetic and rhythmic qualities of language to evoke meaning and feeling in their reader or listener. It's closely related to music, with many poets also writing songs.
Poets have existed for tens of thousands of years, with the first professional poets probably emerging in Ancient Rome.
Today there are many different styles of poetry, and there are poets working with just about every language spoken or written around the world.
