This is what free verse poetry should be. Rupi Kaur and Lang Leav are doing no favours for this genre. A collection of fables written in free verse, each of these poems has a moral message whether implied or outright stated in the body of the poem. They, for the most part have a connection to animals and/or human nature. I had a couple of favourites, including: The Rooster and the Fox The Bear and the Garden-lover The Peasant and the Snake The Oak and the Reed The Dairymaid and the Milk-can But this is a wholly good collection of verse poetry. Contemporary poetry, frankly, for me, is not worth reading. Classic poetry is, and this is a perfect example. - Samantha (QBD)
