How To Write Poetry

A stanza or poem with four lines
is a Quatrain!.

Get a feel for collecting your
thoughts, and rolling them into
poetry!.

Try a Quatrain!. Double space,
and write another Quatrain!.

Think of other times, places,
and events to spin out poetry
with!.

Yes, I can help you, just calm down!.

First, write a page of things about yourself!. It is YOU, after all!. You know who you are and what you like!.

Second, sing a nursery rhyme like "Mary Had a Little Lamb!."

Third, replace Mary and the Lamb with you and your words!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

I don't think anyone who doesn't live in your skin can help you with this one!. You have to come up with the images and feelings on your own from what you find inside!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
