Thank you for the tips on writting poetry. You are very right. I do write poetry, however I do not say I am really good at it.I love poetry, because it is a release for me, a way of getting my feelings out.Things just pop into my mind, and i will put them down on paper.I write poems about so many differant subjects,love,loneliness,god,parents,injustice,the list is really endless.
