We have to feel what we're writing. If we don't feel what we're writing then it's impossible for the reader to connect. I think this is something we can all relate to.

What a wonderful explanation of how a poem is created. Yes, we follow rules that form the guidelines of our poetry, but it is the feeling and emotion that brings the poem to life. I love that you were able to incorporate rhyme and meter. Since your words are so obviously heartfelt, you're offering proof of how heart and structure can come together to form a beautiful poem. Good luck in the contest. You have my vote.

The author's words were engaging, clear, and creative. The artwork
drew me to read this poem. I pondered on the last line of this poem.
And yes poetry must come from the heart. Great presentation including
color scheme. May you be well and safe.

This is very true that writing poetry with all its rules is hard because poetry comes from the heart. Thoughts and feelings are not in rhymes, but must be reworded.

Well done!

I love this because its exactly how I feel. I really don't follow the rules when it comes to writing poems, but I do write from the heart...which is the most important element. Thanks for your insightful verse.

I think this is a good entry for the 34 Syllables writing prompt.
This short piece tells of the art of writing poetry.
Well done and I wish you good luck in the contest.
