To learn how to write poetry, is the first thing you wrote a few. Anyway, it is. Your own mistakes will become your teacher. Write your own motivation to be more creative. Well, when you start the process, how to fix it? Here are three tips.
1 The use of nouns and verbs into adjectives. What is strong: "He is beautiful like a flower ..." or "Roses wilted in shame as it would through the clouds looked ..."?" sad ..." or "He saw the dark clouds moving in, the sky ..."?
2 Tell the reader what you think. Let's words stir emotions directly, without any explanation. "The tragedy has affected everyone," is more interesting to the reader that "men and medicine women, and workers ... Thirteen people looked to the scene ... with tears in his eyes."
3 Use the words and the emotional drama. Not all the words are similar to "grab" the reader or the ability to arouse their emotions. "Fell", "take over" and "love" may be more vulnerable than "fall", "expect" and "cult".
Check out the following lines, written in two ways. The second way applies the three rules above. (From the poem "Thank God.")
A beautiful mountain and lake
I have to see, hear and smell
And I fear
2 Mount stand against the sky
I have a small lake at their feet
In the middle of this creation
What I saw with my eyes
Listening to their ears
The smell and taste ...
No word, as it should
I hope you agree that the second version is better. Even if you know how you want to write poems, you need to start writing. These and other methods to help you, but remember that all rules of poetry, is sometimes broken. Read your poem aloud to himself and others as "tests" shall be final.
