Poetry

Words flow and go
What? When? Where? and How?
Tell the story as it is given.
Pondering and wondering
Make it exciting, sad or glad
Suspenseful, heartwarming or romantic
Viewers all like a good story
Embellish as needed
check for spelling and grammar
(don't want to look like an idiot)
Run by your favorite critic
Post on Poetry Soup for all to enjoy.

lol.this is great advice Doris(: hm.i have problems with that, it takes me forever to type up even one poem, an hour or more. because i replace my written words with bigger words that i search for on dictionary.com.lol.shhh.. thats supposed to be a secret.but it helps me to remember the ones i find and i get used to writing them in my poetry so i won't have to look at a thesaurus all the time, ha ha.-Always&Forever Lynette

This sounds like a recipe for perfect Soup poetry, Doris. Glad to hear you had a nice day! Enjoy the rest of the weekend and keep giving us delightful writing tips as you have here. (Thank goodness for spellcheck!) Love, Carolyn
