I Write Poetry

I used to write poetry regularly when I was a teenager up until my early 20s. Then I found other ways to express my feelings as I got older. But I still appreciate poetry very much and I enjoy analyzing poems and have even long discussions about them.

Funny thing is that I wrote most of my poems during boring classes at school. I would write lines on my school books as we turn pages, then I collect them when I get home.

Good for you. I'm quite a poetry fan and have written some myself. I love ee cummings, WH Auden, and Wallace Stevens.

This is beautiful.. a good poem can be our voices when we are lost for words.

I also like the complicated structures and forms. Figuring out the perfect arrangement of rhymes, syllables, and meters makes it a bit of a puzzle.
