Poems describe at least usually some well running atmospheric or emotionally motivating sides of life of their writer. So the reader learns something about well running life in general, but typically where the readers oneself has experience of such good sides, and of course does not get the same likings etc as the writer, but instead a different version of such, for example liking a different hobby or a different area of life or reaching for different emphazis on values in social life.
A poet's view is as far as I know, like somebody's who knows the areas of life so well that one can say that this skills work on this area, and it works better with theseemphazies, and so one mentilns something motivating which brings the right perspective for the reader and does not cause bad misunderstandings. One is fond of such life and shares such likibgs with others so that the reader is kind of dragged along to a well working life.
Of nature poems, the atmospheric compares with the atmospheric in reader's experience, so a nature view may compare with the atmospheres of skiing trips in different kinds of winter weathers, or with a glance from an open window to the sea when there is a nice morning atmosphere in the air. Typically tuning to good ways of living the weathefs brings fine-tuning skills that make such observations and life more enjoyable and wise about such ways of living. And for one with a quite alike but different kind of nature and climate, it might be like an atmospheric moment or view of a moment in life, like a sight in a cloud of dust against the sun of two people wamking leisurely hand in hand in the sand, or of autumn wind catching one's coat when coming out and the door slamming unexpectedly loud, tree branches waving in the autumn storm, or life a sight of an insect flying near a flower in a fliwer pot.

23th of June 2024 Thinking of Eino Leino's poems it came to my mind that some build thkngs oriented foreigners maybe have termed such unnecessary nonsense. But poems are wise, tell of healthy wholes of natural life, bringing examples of the major phenomena of life, and make them easier to understand deeply, profoundly, since in the nature environment there are different shapes and colours, ways of living reflected in the different plant and animal species and in their individuals, different skills, lufe spheres, emotional attitudes etc, and those kibd of fractureless compared to ordinary human affair. So it is just somehow easier to find almost vocabukary for thoughrs, wisdom of lufe, etc, much eadier to grow wiser.
