for some reason i cant clear my mind to write a really good poem for this girl that i like.....i was hoping someone could help me out or give me some tips maybe? please id really be thankful

Sit with paper.

Write words as they come up.

Not sentences.

The words that express the feelings that arise.

Allow it to flow from you. and it will come to you...no order...

Poetry is expression of soul...allow it to sing, in whatever form it chooses.

well my dear just follow your heart.that is ALL i can suggest to you.

i read others writings sometimes for inspiration. there is a mood that develops - i will recommend the threads here called "A Mood" and RUMI - they *always* inspire me.

Here is an idea - write a short letter to her - force yourself to limit it to say 20 lines. express everything about what you feel for her condensed into that 20 lines, distill it further into 15 lines. make each thought count. don't worry so much about rhyme as the true expressions of your feeling. re-write until it flows and feels comfortable. but if it is really you expressing a genuine feeling then you can't go wrong. it will always be special!

short and sweet is a good combination...

may your journey yield just the words you need!...

If you really like this girl...

then write a poem that expresses how you feel about her and then after you do that compare those feelings about her to a red rose or any color rose for that matter.

it is only a suggestion.

take care,

love,

bettie

p.s.

good luck on the poem

WHAT WAS OR IS THE COOLEST TIME? or THING? or THAT "SHE" ever done with YOU..
Take that moment and right it down brief, then others and combine them ALL into your THOUGHTS of LOVE for HER,,,wink,

GOOD LUCK!!!!!

Relax alot of times you will find you cant write because youre stressing take a walk in the woods , maybe listen to some old classic music like Bread songs that have real meaning and words you can understand settle back in a nice comfy chair and let your heart express itself dont worry about the rhymes look it over and over delete rewrite some verses when something hits you from out of the blue jot it down eventually you will compose what you want to say .alot of times its not always all at once take your time shell get it PEACE AND LOVE ... i hope ive helped you
