What is Poetry?

We are Hilo High School Vikings who have travelled from Chuuk, Japan, Marshall Islands, Philippines, and Yap.  We recently learned the difference between poetry and prose and the difference between metaphor and simile.  We also learned about anaphora and imagery.  Please enjoy our poems and feel free to provide us with feedback.
