How To Write English Poem

Felix Said:

i need to write a poem for english extra credit?

We Answered:

Start by comparing growing apart to something in nature, like two vines growing further and further apart, or something. And then carry on that theme throughout the poem.

Don't be mean, Katie.

I think it is a very sweet poem! Keep writing! :) I will suggest just a few changes, if you dont mind.
--------------------------------------…

When I look deep in your eyes
I feel as if I could take flight
And wherever I am, I'll believe in you forever
I believe that we are evolving in love
Yes, Love!
My heart jumped with joy when you looked at me
When I read on your eyes the word love
And I believed that life is love
But do not forget that you are my love
When I stared into your eyes
I lost my myself, I lived for you
What am I?
Who am I?
Where am I?
But I know that you are mine
And you will be mine one day
When I stared into your eyes
A hope to wait for you was born
And I shall just say that I love you
Though this great distance between us compels me to cry
But I will try to simply think of you, and smile

Eric Said:

Please can some1 shape these lines into a poem?i have no idea how to write a poem,English is not my language?

We Answered:

what you have here is a poem itself, did you write it? I don't see what's so bad about it, you did a great job, but if you want a more poetic flow to it then i guess i could give it a shot.

I saw a lady down the street,
Dressed in red from top to bottom,
With red heels on her feet,
She looked as beautiful as a blossom.

I stood there in my long back coat,
Wondering what she must be thinking,
Watching me watch her under the falling snow,
In her eyes I was sinking

It was One thing that I learned that day,
that love is really true,
because that's the day oh my beloved,
that I fell for you

Is that okay?

Andy Said:

i have to write a poem for english.?

We Answered:

I believe in true love, but
the truth is that I
don't.

I believe in God and redemption, but
the truth is, I don't think God
will redeem
Me.

OK, I lied.

Soulmates?
True love?
God?

Is there air on your planet?

What do you, oh, my teacher, want from me?

Talk about forgiveness?

Will you give me second chances
if I say I believe
in true love?

Will I get second chances?

Of course not,
so, what does this course
matter?

Or is this course
another version,
another sneaky piece of life
called
LIFE?

Lois Said:

How do I write a good poem?

We Answered:

You get started by learning how to use good English and use it well. A workman needs to be able to use the tools of his trade. Words are the tools of a poet...a poem may well be about emotions, but these emotions are best expressed through words, so your first respondent is in error in his final comments. Trust me...I know of which I speak.

It also helps if you have something to say which is worth the saying.

Discuss It!
