ABOUT ME
I have been writing poetry since I was a kid and love the process of the poem.
Make sure you give the poem enought time because sometimes poems need a bit of aging like fine wine. Sit with it for a while even after you have written the poem and respect the process of editing ...... Most of my life has been re-editing yesterday's errors or detours til I get it right .... the same applies to your poetry!
Above all, enjoy the writing and the rewriting of the poem..... and dont' take it for granted or think that good poems drop from the sky with instant genius attached to them.
