Poem Making: POETIC MIND

It is not easy make a poem?

Many people are not interested in making a poem not because they are not poetic person. Because of many forms that are not easily to make. Some people use Free verse because in poetic forms it is the easiest one to make.In my personal opinion poem is one way of expressing yourself, being smart is not required but the heart to make a poem is the best way. Nowadays many teenagers are not fan of making a poem because of the new gadgets out there. Unlike the old days that many people are making their poem.

I will make two forms  of poem for you to understand how to make it. And you will have fun doing it so follow me in making these two forms of poem. First is limerick and next is royal rhyme.

LIMERICK

A limerick is a form of poetry, especially one in five-line anapestic meter with a strict rhyme scheme (AABBA), which is sometimes obscene with humorous intent. The first, second and fifth lines are usually longer than the third and fourth.

There was an old man with a beard

Who said, "it’s just how I feared! 

Two owls and a hen 

Four larks and a wren 

Have all built their nests in my beard.

My own example

Friend of mine

I have a good friend who is thin 

He told me that he had a twin

He is always not happy

His twin is crappy

He want his twin to spin

How to Write a Limerick

Another form of poem

Blank Verse

Blank verse is poetry written in regular metrical but unrhymed lines, almost always iambic pentameter It has been described as "probably the most common and influential form that English poetry.

You stars that reign'd at my nativity,

Whose influence hath allotted death and hell,

Now draw up Faustus like a foggy mist

Into entrails of yon labouring clouds,

That when they vomit forth into the air,

My limbs may issue from their smoky mouths,

So that my soul may but ascend to Heaven.

(Doctor Faustus)

My own example

My Love

Their is a girl who catches my heart when it falls

She didn't not know the reason is her

I always wanted her hug everyday

I want always wanted her kiss everyday

I want forever to be with her 

Because my love for her will last forever
