So Many Types of Poetry

Since I've been on Poetrysoup I admit I was taken back By how many types of poetry My education seems to lack Could I make my rhyme a sixette Or would I be 3 short If I charged for a freeverse Would I be forced to abort How much must I remove to make my hexaverse diminished and then do I need more words before I can be finished Can I let my Rondeau Redouble Without too much trouble at first And must I be affiliated To attempt a political verse I guess I'll learn them one at a time Until then I'll just call them a rhyme

I love this poem! Not only was it well writen, but it also connects with the readers. Very well writen and very true. Good write!

Thank you Elissa. It's a slow go but I'm learning I think. By the way I really liked your acrostic "Criminal Minds" Loved the poem, love the show, finally Spencer got out of jail! :)

Your poem made me smile Roger as I knew nothing about poetry until I joined soup in fact I never liked poetry until I started writing in Nov 2013 and now I too have learned so so so much:-) hugs Jan xx

Thank you so much. I've read several of your poems and It's hard to imagine a world of poetry without you in it. Hugs back :)
