I would just explain to them how poetry is a way of writing in order to capture physical and emotional details unable to be written in factual writing. Hope this helps :-)
You can repair or make anything. If I were to make or repair something by myself it would be either doing a diy craft. Or just fixing the lights. I would either do a diy on a Christmas gift for a family, since Christmas is coming up. But if I were fixing the lights by myself I would grab a latter and a screw driver. And simply fix it.
