Mayhem Poetry Form

I do not know the different forms of poetry
To be honest I have no desire to ascertain
So many forms and so complicated
To much confusion for my lazy brain!

I just like to write my thoughts down
A combination of heart and mind
About life and all it encompasses 
Usually in a rhyme

I love reading poetry
Be it fiction or the real deal
Humorous, heartfelt, serious, dark, 
All topics and opinions on how poets feel
 
I respect poets who love a challenge 
Who appreciate the varied poetry forms 
But for me just reading the names of them
Leaves my brain all tattered and torn!

Qawwali, Jueju ,Concrete
Munajat, Vogon,Tyburn, Grook
Only a handful of many 
Like words out of a science fiction book!!

My personal preference is to keep it simple
Avoiding forms like Diamanté or Suzette Prime
Continuing to pen my poems
In just good old fashioned Rhyme !

You might as well have reached into my head and stole my thoughts… hmm, maybe you should overlook some of what you found there. ;-) A1 write my upside down friend. Terry X Login to Reply
