So i have been taking some online poetry classes on allpoetry.com, i really thought hey i can do this. If i can write poetry, this would be easy, well the first two assignments was easy peasy, when i got to the forms Kyrielle, i think i had to redo the assignment three times becos i was just nt getting the sylabbles right, kindly enough the lecturer was able to pass me on my last try...
so we went onto the next assignment, believe me even though it isnt yet graded i am so not going to get the Qautern form right either..
then i ask myself now why do i want my poems in certain forms, why not just write freeverse..
but what i have come to realise is that every poet needs to know what the forms is...
we all need to know deeper then the words you are writing...
the other day i tried so hard on a shape poem, believe me i couldnt even shape a mother swaying a baby, i even drew the picture and try to put the words out there i just couldnt get it right.
So there goes my shape poetry out the door..The reason i enter these contest and classes is that you never to old to learn, are in my case never to late to try something new, but i will keep going and see what amzing forms i can create in the meantime..
If you like to know more of me i am not just an poetess i am more then that.
I am also a novelist i just completed my first romance novel, and i have written several online publications, i now am home to Allpoetry.com. as fallen wingz..
I have won two silver trophies and one bronze trophy on three of my poems, i am sure one day i will get the gold, who knows i might bring out my own selection of poetry..
I'll keep on trying with this poetry forms..
might just be another shakespeare..
