The easiest way to enjoy poetry is to read it out loud so that you get used to the rhythm and meter. Once you've grasped this you can then take one stanza at a time and work out what each part means. It helps if you know a little about the poet, their interests and what they usually write about in their work.

Good Luck with you reading. Smile
