poems based on true story

It varies. Some poems are deeply rooted in true stories, while others are purely products of the poet's imagination. It depends on the poet's intent and creative process.

Poems based on true story usually have a connection to reality that makes them relatable. If it's about a social issue like Maya Angelou's 'Still I Rise' which is based on the African - American experience, it can resonate with others who have faced discrimination. They also tend to have a deeper emotional depth because they are rooted in real experiences, whether it's love, loss, or struggle. For instance, Poe's works were often influenced by his own difficult life, and this is reflected in the melancholic and often haunting nature of his poems.

My Captain!' by Walt Whitman was written in memory of Abraham Lincoln, so it is also based on a real - life event and person. Whitman was mourning the loss of the great leader who had led the nation through a difficult time.

Well, it's a bit of a mix. While it may be inspired by some true elements from 1899 such as the general state of the world, sea travel, and social hierarchies at that time, it also has a lot of fictional elements added for the sake of drama and mystery. For example, the overarching mystery plot might be a creative take on some historical uncertainties, but not directly based on a single true story.
