Writing Poems
KNOW YOUR PURPOSE IN WRITING
According to Edith Sitwell, poetry unveils the
meaning which is inside the heart and mind. The goal
in writing should be in mind as you start writing
poem e.g. letting the readers discover the meaning of
the poem, expressing your philosophies in life, or
conveying your ideas using beautiful language.
KEEP AWAY FROM CLICHÉS
Clichés are ideas or expressions which have
been used by many people. Examples are
“Time heals all wounds”; “Read between
lines”; “Roses are red, violets are blue.” Try to
form your own words as much as possible.
Enjoy playing with words while communicating
the message to the readers.
USE POETIC DEVICES, ELEMENTS AND
TECHNIQUES IN POETRY
Apply the different imagery like gustatory, auditory,
tactile, olfactory, and visual. Make use of the
figurative language like simile, metaphor,
personification, and other figures of speech. It is also
very nice to hear when you incorporate rhyme, and
word sounds like onomatopoeia, assonance,
consonance, and alliteration. Explore also the use of
poetic devices like rhyme, rhyme scheme, and meter.
CHOOSE CONCRETE WORDS
Since, poetry is creating picture through the
use of words, see to it that the words are
concrete for readers to create vivid mental
images. Instead of stating the emotions,
employ words that can describe the abstract
ideas. Thus, it is very important to use imagery
and figures of speech in writing poems
COMMUNICATE THEME
Be sure also that the readers can comprehend
the theme that you wanted to convey in your
poem. Theme does not mean the topic but the
topic plus the opinion about it. For example in
the poem “How Do I Love Thee”, the theme is
love that can be expressed in different ways
even unto the next life.
REVISE YOUR WORK
Do not be discouraged of revising and revising
your work. This process is very important
since you are polishing your piece. You will see
that the more you polish it, the outcome is
better. Try also asking others to read your work
and ask their feedback because in this way,
your work becomes improved and interesting.
4. Specific Experiences
Finally, another technique in appreciating the literary
work is to identify the specific experiences of the
writer and how the readers relate this experience to
their own lives. Through this specific experience, the
writer and reader interaction becomes alive and they
get connected to each other.
