There are lots of different writers and poets in the world. It's obvious that they all made an enormous contribution into our lives and nowadays we can't live without literature, great poems and stories. In my essay I want to focus on one famous writer who is well-known all over the world and whose masterpieces are still popular and actual among people of different ages. I want to write about Alexander Sergeevich Pushkin and his role in my life.

My Pushkin is a great poet. My first acquaintance with Pushkin happened when I was 5 years old. A thick and very beautiful book arrived to me from Moscow. It was full of poems written by Alexander Sergeevich and they really impressed me. «Tale of the Golden Cockerel», «Ruslan and Ludmila», «Tale of the Dead Princess and the Seven Knights» and other stories with bright pictures and amazing worlds are still my favorite books. After reading the book I visited the exhibition of wax figures where the heroes of Pushkin's stories were displayed, I felt myself like a character of these poems and, of course, a few lines from Pushkin's book came to my mind. Nowadays I still love this poet and can find an answer on every question, friendly advice and incredible pleasure from rich Russian language in his masterpieces. Pushkin's poetry is permeated by various events that have influenced his life, for example the desire for freedom. Freedom in Alexander Pushkin’s literary works occupies one of the central positions. Living in the period of social and political changes, in the era of the Great Patriotic War of 1812 and the revolt of Decembrist of 1825, Pushkin belonged to the generation which was in search of ideal freedom. At the beginning of Pushkin’s literary career, the issue of freedom in his literary works acquires a strong political tendency. In his early poem «Volnost» Alexander Sergeevich reveals his vision of ideal freedom.

My Pushkin is an example of kindness and talent, courage, simplicity, cheerfulness and loyalty in friendship. He saw the meaning in every moment of his life and incredibly loved it. He was great in everything: in his hopes, delusions, victories, love for nature, for his motherland, to people. Six years of life Pushkin spent in Tsarsko-Selskiy Lyceum where he was highly appreciated by his poetic gift and made real friends. In his works there is a set of poems dedicated to the Lyceum, for example " 19 October", and to his best friends " k Chaadaevy", "k Puschinu", "Friendship", "To friends". Pushkin is a national poet. His poems are filled with wealth, power and flexibility of Russian language. Pushkin affects people by his truthful poems.

My Pushkin is a person with an active lifestyle. He always had his own opinion and wasn't afraid to express it. That was why for his bold poetry, he was sent into exile in Mikhailovskoe. Pushkin was a very bright poet, the founder of further Russian literature. Great creators always go ahead and call people for them, Pushkin was a great creator and he was always relevant for the new generation of readers.

To conclude all the above ideas, I would like to say that Alexander Sergeevich Pushkin is undoubtedly one of the world greatest poets. Pushkin's poems have been living with me since my childhood and I am sure that they will help me in my future life. My Pushkin is one of those people from whom you need to take an example.
