Poetry has no Relavance to the youth of today

Although the poems, “Do not go gentle into that good night” Dylan Thomas, “But you didn’t” Merrill Glass, “The soldier” Rupert Brooke, “Warning” Jenny Joseph, “The executioner” Shane Collins, “ A prayer for the twenty first century” John Marsden and “The road not taken” Robert Frost have different styles, they all have one common theme which is life. Throughout history poets have written about issues, which have affected their life; they have recorded their surroundings …

…yet some can seem so simple. The choices we decide are stuck with us, “there is no turning back on life”. To conclude, poetry will always have relevance to the youth of today, as all of these issues described in each poem all connect to youth and have issues that are about what youth deal with from day to day or what they might have to go through; issues that are all related to life.
