Poets' thinking is more active than that of ordinary people, who are more fixed and inflexible. Poets, on the other hand, are usually unconstrained and unconstrained, which ordinary people can't understand, so they are called lunatics. The most prominent feature of poetry is lyricism. Poetry born to love, died for love. It is emotional. Moreover, the writing style is generally short, but the essence is concentrated. For example, China's ancient lyric poems are short in length and strict in law, but all-encompassing, and one word can refer to thousands of miles. . Modern poetry, on the other hand, has flexible writing format, unlimited words and flexible content, which is convenient for expressing the author's strong feelings.
The composition can be written into poems, lyrics, essays, travel notes and novels. You should mean the difference between a poet and a novelist. Personally, I think it is the same. Novelists also like to write poems, and poets can also write novels. There are many examples.
A writer is an accomplished person who takes writing as a worker and engages in literary creation. Therefore, people who can generally be called "writers", most of their works can be published by regular publishing houses, sell well in the market and have a certain readership. According to the theme of creation, writers mainly include poets, essayists, novelists, playwrights, literary critics and essayists.
