Poems by Ari

Intro

"poet" a word used very generally
A word used to describe
a writer,
a reader,
a thinker,
a lover.
A word that is only a door to a world of
stories,
legends,
feelings, and many more.
This is the door to my life.
I'm glad you chose it.

About me

My name is Ari Odinec and I'm 14 years old. I started this blog a few years ago, to share my poems with family and friends. Through the years, Poems by Ari has become more than a website. It has become a resource for me to voice my opinions and beliefs, and to stand up as an advocate. It has become a diary of my growth as a poet. Poetry is a gift that keeps giving in my life, a beacon of hope, opportunity, and joy. I always pour my heart into each word I write, creating poetry that holds deep meaning. I still have so much to learn, and I am beyond excited for the years to come of learning and growth. Please enjoy the poems.
