What does it takes to be a poet? <br />A creative mind and soul <br />Bump starting with <br />Daring inner voices. <br /> <br />Visualisation, <br />Imagery, metaphor, <br />Get into Dreamy world <br />Solitude place <br /> <br />Drafting, re-draft and revision <br />Choose your subject matter <br />Let your inner gut instinct and intuition <br />Guide you along the way <br /> <br />Create moody feeling <br />Dreamy and day dreaming <br />Context, stanza, forms, tones and lines breaking <br />Writing in different styles <br />Get rhythm and rhyme to choose you <br /> <br />It doesn't mean a thing if <br />It ain't got that swing and flow <br />Re-read, re-write and revise <br />To accomplish <br />The finest poem<br /><br />Lawrence CH Hiun<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/a-poet-30/
