Cuando asisto al teatro y me cautiva un concierto, pienso con emoción que se trata de una de las fórmulas de la vida, una serie de notas que, en armonía y equilibrio, se aman y, juntas y sin perder individualidad, consiguen la maestría, lo excelso, la belleza, lo sublime.
Like ‘Beauty and the Beast,’ ‘Poetry and the Brain‘ waltz to melodies that are as individualistic, emotional, and timely as the moment presents. Then, do we poets have the rite of passage, to write what we feel is right from our hearts? Yep, you betch ya!
Poetry surrounds us each day. It touches our souls in greeting cards, song lyrics, and television jingles. While articulating our feelings, thoughts, and ideas, poetry motivates and inspires us. It not only gives us insight into ourselves and others, but it strengthens our communication skills through sentence structure, figurative language, vocabulary, and analysis skills. We ruminate about details throughout poetic verses that connect us with an emotion we probably experienced before, or perhaps a new emotion that took us by surprise.
What triggers how we respond to poetry when we read it, recite it, or hear it recited by others? It’s the “feeling,” be it abstract or not, that we get when we look at art, listen to music, create a craft, read a book, watch a theatrical performance, or watch a movie. There is a “reading network” of brain areas that is activated in response to any written material. But it has also been found that more emotionally charged writing aroused several regions in the brain.
Studies have shown that both sides of the brain are affected by poetry. If poetry is filled with emotion it is believed that it will affect the ride side of the brain (creativity). If the work is deemed more literary, then the left side of the brain will react (analytical). The beauty of it is that lovers of poetry can enjoy creative prose and still utilize both sides of their brains.
There are a few people I know who are avid readers of different genres, who write reviews about the books they read but have shared with me that they just don’t get poetry. These are highly intelligent people I’m talking about. I explain to them in layman’s terms that I am a lover of diverse music, from R&B, Jazz, Pop, Country, and Easy Listening, to movie scores. But I confess that every genre of music I don’t get because it does not connect with my emotional pleasures and seems to annoy me. But those who do get it are avid music lovers of those musical categories I cannot connect to. And that’s okay.
Researchers are using new brain imaging technology to bridge the gap between art and science by mapping different ways in which the brain responds to poetry and prose. Poetry touches the heart and teaches the poet and their audience emotional expressions occurring from everyday lessons. The soul of poetry will elevate one’s thoughts and imagination through the veins of poetic form. How does reading, reciting, writing, or listening to poetry caress your brainwaves?
“Ethics are not a collection of commandments and prohibitions to abide by, but a natural inner offering that can bring happiness and satisfaction to ourselves and others.”
The song was originally written by Burt Bacharach and Carole Bayer Sager for the 1982 movie Night Shift, where it was recorded by Rod Stewart and played over the closing credits.
