Who likes Poetry??

So tell me Who likes Poetry?
I have never been one to read poetry. English and Writing has always been my favorite subject. I loved every part of it. Including writing Essays...yes I know ugh but they just are easy for me. Now that being said poetry was one that ...nope never got it...never understood it, that is until now. I have had an occasional poem that I thought was interesting but not really, really liked until now. While reading "Present over Perfect" she mentioned a poet that she liked reading her name is Mary Oliver. I "googled" her poetry loved it. Especially a poem titled "The Journey", this poem is about 
the journey one takes through life in order to become an individual. 
This poem I totally enjoyed reading especially at this point in my life. I am re-evaluating many parts of my life, mainly who I am as an individual. Sometimes we re-find ourselves later in life. I did this once already at around the age of 30. This is when I came 100% comfortable with who I am as person. That's kind of another blog post so I won't tarry there right now. 
She has other poems that I skimmed over and will go back and read again slowly to get the understanding. 
It's strange how sometimes we find things later in our life that we like that in the past never would have interested us. I think our "tastes" change over time.
