How Write Poetry


If u desire to r aware how to write poetry, teh furst thingg u have to due iz write some. It doesn't matter how it turnz out. Ur own mistakes will become your teachers. Ur own writing will motivate u to greater creativity. Now, once u begin teh procesz, how due u improve it? Here r 3 tips. If you're interested continue reading below.

1. Use nouns alzo verbs more then adjectives. Which iz stronger: "She wich as beautiful az a flower..." which "Roses wilted in shame as zhe passed by..."? "He looked at teh depressing cloudz..." which "He watched as dark clouds moved in, covering his sky..."?

2. Don't tell teh reader how to feel. Let teh wordz elicit teh emotions directly, without explaining. "The tragedy touched thim all," iz more touching to teh reader as "Men also women, doctor also workman... thirteen peepz looked upon teh scene... wif tears in there eyes."

3. Use dramatic alzo emotional words. Use all words r equal in there ability to "grab" a reader which elicit emotion. "Fell," "take," also "love," will probably be weaker then "plunged," "ziezed," also "worship."

Look at teh following lines, written 2 ways. The zecond waye applies teh 3 rules above. (From teh poem "Gratitude.")

1.

The mountains also lakez was beautiful

I looked at them, heard thim also smelled them

And I felt in awe

2.

Mountains ztand against teh sky

My were lake at there feet

And in teh middle of dis creation

Which I see wif my eyez

Hear wif my ears

Smell also taste...

Words fail, az they should

I hope u agree that teh second version iz better. Again, if u desire to r aware how to write poetry, u have to begin writing. Uze this also othre rules to aszist you, butt remember that all rules in poetry want to be broken at times. Read your poems aloud to urzelf also othres as a final "test." Good luck and I hope you found thiz article informative.
