    INTRODUCTION

    Writing poetry can be fun and entertaining. I first started to write poems when I was seventeen. My very first poem was, The Lady of the Sea. This was also published by the National Society of Poetry, USA in their Anthology by Watermark Press. My next poem, The Master of the Field was also featured in an Anthology of poetry.

    Over the years I have written a number of poems. I have even tried my hand at writing limericks on the Anglo-Indian (mixed British-Indian) race, which I also belong to. There have been times over the years, when I have written about ten poems in a day. Yet, there have been periods, when I have not written a single poem for over six months.

    Writing poetry, I have found is very therapeutic. I like to write all types of verse, some about nature, some about love and romance, some about people, others about events or the metaphysical verse, which is a sort of creative booster shot for writing philosophical poems. Discover the therapy of poetry, by writing one today.

    I find writing poetry interesting, as I can encapsulate a single idea in a few lines for maximum impact and yet at the same time capture the essential ingredients of the concept. Poems and poets have always fascinated me, and we all have miles to go before we sleep, so why not spend that time either writing, listening or reading poetry.

    Discover the Poet within yourself and write a few lines of verse today!

    Warm Regards

    FOREWORD

    Answers to Life in Poetry Therapy

    Poetry reading and writing has always been of great interest to many over the years, the decades and the centuries. Poetry has been respected as a literary Art all over the world, in all cultures, heritages and languages.

    Poetry has undergone great transformations over the years. The poets of today stand tall on the shoulders of those great poets like, William Shakespeare, William Wordsworth, Henry W. Longfellow, Emily Dickinson, William Blake, Wilfred Owen and Shelley, whose poems and writings are immortal and have an impact in shaping the destiny of mankind.

    Discovering the Art of Poetry

    One of the best ways to discover the art of poetry writing is to visit the library and to read the work of some of the greatest poets who have walked the Earth. Next, it would be a good idea to study the structure and the pattern of the various types of poems, from Romantic poetry to Nature poems and from epics and ballads to sonnets, elegies, odes and epigrams. The 16th century Japanese Haiku and the new free verse of modern society are two examples of the evolution of poetry.

    Listening to poems can help to put you into a poetic frame of mind, while helping you to appreciate the beauty and the structure of the poems.

    Reading poems can help you to feel the rhythm of the poems and appreciate the manner in which the poet has treated his subject.

    Writing poetry is a great experience in itself. The three stages in writing a poem of value would be to capture an idea, visualize the thought, select a few words related to the concept, with a ring to them and then proceed to develop your idea in the form of verse. Try creating couplets, if you are good at rhyming and then start to create a style following a pattern of poems you have read. But, if you like freedom, try writing your poem in free verse.

    Experiencing Poetry in your life

    The best way to experience poetry is to think and feel like a poet. See the beauty in everything around you. Know that all life is connected. Read the work of the great poets and visualize all the powerful images and feelings which they have invoked within you.

    Every little idea has the potential to become a powerful poem, with the right words and the right meaning giving it life.
