ain't certain, you might wanna google it though.
I never let a space (or the lack thereof) get in the way of my peace of mind
yeah..according to this (http://btr.michaelkwan.com/2009/11/19/grammar-101-is-it-maybe-or-may-be/), which I found by google.."maybe" is always replaceable by "perhaps"
there,it's the use of the language I suppose, right word in the right place, you can come off pretty poetic.
sometimes I simply don't get it when it comes to English poems..

I think they are great.
some poems have such imagination that they are like great paintings. say a million things.
I understand..and I agree...I did not say they are not great...I simply said sometimes I am having difficulty understanding them...I think they are great.
මේ දෙක පාවිච්චි කරන විදිහ වෙනස්. ඒ කියන්නේ grammar වල යොදන ආකාරය.
There is often confusion over 'maybe' and 'may be'. Maybe
Maybe (one word) can be substituted with 'perhaps' or 'possibly'. ('Maybe' is an adverb.) Try substituting the 'maybe' in these examples with 'perhaps':
Maybe this world is another planet's hell.
(Aldous Huxley)
Courage is saying, "Maybe what I'm doing isn't working; maybe I should try something
else."
(Anna Lappe)
Maybe you have to know darkness before you can appreciate the light.
(Madeleine L'engle)
There are a lot of people who can't write and maybe shouldn't write.
(Sarah Hepola)
May Be
May be (two words) is similar to 'might be', 'could be' or 'would be'. (The word 'may' in 'may be' is an auxiliary verb.)
Examples:
Conscience is the inner voice that warns us somebody may be looking.
(H. L. Mencken)
If two men agree on everything, you may be sure that one of them is doing the thinking.
(Lyndon B. Johnson)
The ability to delude yourself may be an important survival tool.
(Jane Wagner)

probably you ain't reading them as many times as it takes
we should probably take this conversation elsewhere before adult junior nazi up.
You are correct 100%...most of time I am simply skimming over them...probably you ain't reading them as many times as it takes

But, there are (although few) poems that I understand and enjoy..
One of them is, Shakespeare's,
This royal throne of kings, this sceptered isle,
This earth of majesty, this seat of Mars,
This other Eden, demi-paradise,
This fortress built by Nature for herself
Against infection and the hand of war,
This happy breed of men, this little world,
This precious stone set in the silver sea
Which serves it in the office of a wall,
Or as a moat defensive to a house,
Against the envy of less happier lands,
This blessed plot, this earth, this realm, this England

to quote Shakespeare in another place,
"4. I have of late,—but wherefore I know not,—lost all my mirth, forgone all custom of exercises; and indeed, it goes so heavily with my disposition that this goodly frame, the earth, seems to me a sterile promontory; this most excellent canopy, the air, look you, this brave o’erhanging firmament, this majestical roof fretted with golden fire,—why, it appears no other thing to me than a foul and pestilent congregation of vapours. What a piece of work is man! How noble in reason! how infinite in faculties! in form and moving, how express and admirable! in action how like an angel! in apprehension, how like a god! the beauty of the world! the paragon of animals! And yet, to me, what is this quintessence of dust?"
judging from the contradictions at hand, I might say the guy was probably bipolar. sorry, won't post off topic anymore on this thread.

Not that I loved poetry less, but that I want this thread for English Language more
