Writing poetry can be loads of fun
Especially when you make up your own word-un
See, that is what makes classic poets far better
When they dig deep for words that you don’t know exist-er
For every hence, thou, shall and dost
Is an equal word matching in rhyme and syllabl-ost
It’s simple, no really, to develop a pattern
Just start writing your manuscript and let it developer-n
Study their work: Hughes, Dickinson, Frost and Poe
Isn’t it lovely how the words work together-o
One should not be bashful when starting to pen
Short or long poems that have meaning to them-en
Expressing thoughts and feelings a healthy exercise
When completed often times helps one communicate-ize
Do not write in fear of what others may say
Remember you write not for them but for you-ay
To master the art of poetry truly looks quite daunting
But with practice and patience comes satisfaction-ing
So pick up that pen, do not worry or doubt
Write your poem with made up poet words like the list I’ve laid out!
this is so very cleaver.
one must write whatever
so thanks for this reminder
to jot what’s on my minder-er
🙂
