What is Composition?

Simply, composition is writing. However, it is not necessary for the term composition to be limited to a particular genre or style of writing. In addition, it need not be formal in diction or tone. Yet, it is important for composition to have organization and several key ideas or points. Without organization or main idea, the piece will seem to lack purpose and the reader will be less able to understand the work. Although basic, an introduction, thesis and conclusion will aid in presenting the meaning of the composition.
