I don't know if the film "Dead Poets Society" has been mentioned here before but I'm throwing this out just in case it hasn't- it's one of my all time favorite movies.
Watching that movie always inspires me to live fully. I'm always grateful for the reminder: Carpe diem.
And of course, the film says so much about poetry. For me and I'm sure for many of you, poetry, like all the arts, is more than just noodling. Poetry is the story of our lives, the marrow in our bones, the songs we sing, whisper or scream. Poetry is flesh on paper. It is the rhythm of life and the marker on our grave. It's messages are carried on the air endlessly.

“The fear of death follows from the fear of life. A man [or woman] who lives fully is prepared to die at any time.”
Variously credited to Mark Twain or Edward Abbey.
