Yeast - A New Poem By Me

Hi Everyone,

Here is a poem I wrote last year, which I have recently rediscovered.  I hope you like it.

Yeast

Bubbles protrude,
upon airy orbs.
Cascading. Crusading
towards a prideful apex.

Three Quick Ways To Be A Successful Poet

Hi Everyone,

How are you all going?  I hope you are going well, and enjoying whatever weather you are currently having. 

So today, I wanted to share with you three ways in which you can become a better poet, and in time a successful poet; they are:

1 - Use your past experiences and emotions
      Have you been a situation where you have been so scared you have shaken all over, or
      been so excited you can't stop laughing and smiling because of the circumstance. Then use
      the experiences and any others to fuel your writing.

                     Red is such an interesting color to correlate with emotion,

                     because it's on both ends of the spectrum. On one end you

                     have happiness, falling in love, infatuation with someone,

                     passion, all that. On the other end, you've got obsession,

                     jealousy, danger, fear, anger and frustration.

                     - Taylor Swift

 

2 - Write about what interests you
      This is always a winner, as you often do your best work when you love the topic.  Overall, the
      things that you are passionate about are what you should write about, because if you do the words
      often flow quite easily. 

                    Passion is one great force that unleashes creativity, because if you're passionate about

                    something, then you're more willing to take risks.
                   - Yo-Yo Ma

3 - If you get stuck - go do something else
     If you are having trouble finding the ideas to write about or even certain ideas, than go and do
     something else for a bit  - it can be anything, such as having a nap, or going for a walk. 

                       Henry David Thoreau, the writer of Walden, penned in his journal.
                      “Methinks that the moment my legs begin to move,
                      my thoughts begin to flow.”

I hope this article has been of some use to people.  If you did find it useful than feel free to share this article with others.

Till we meet again, have a good week, and stay well.

Leonardo Da Vinci On Poetry

Hi Everyone,

I quickly wanted to share with you a quote by Leonard Da Vinci on poetry.  Its short, but makes a person think about the impact of poetry more.  Which in my opinion can only be a good thing.

So here it is:

“Painting is poetry that is seen rather than felt, and poetry is painting that is felt rather than seen.”  

I hope you like it, and it gets you thinking.

Till we meet again, have a good week.
