In this episode, I explore how poetry, especially Walt Whitman's 'Song of Myself,' can make us feel more alive by connecting us with the universal human experience. I delve into Emily Dickinson's 'Tell All the Truth' to demonstrate how poetry not only makes us think but also enables us to see the world in new ways. Plus, I share a personal poem to show how poetry can be a powerful tool for processing our emotions. Join me as I reveal why poetry is not just for reading, but for living.
