HELP SOUGHT IN POETRY STUDY

I am conducting a study on what role, if any, poetry plays in the lives of non-poets and people not directly associated with writing. If you are not professionally associated with literature and poetry is important to you, take the time to let me know why. What has poetry done for you? What do you get from poetry? Has poetry made your life different in any way? Finally, how did you get started reading poetry?
