I have recently become a lot more active on this site once again and I am looking to update my favourites. I am also craving some great poetry to read as I love being inspired by others.
I am not going to limit your options, all I ask is that you give me something I can feel. At this moment a few things I would particularly enjoy would be;
- A love poem that hits my heart (be it heart-warming or heart-breaking.)
- Tell me a secret (let me in a little.)
- What would you do if you could turn back time? (tell me your regrets or missed moments.)
- Tell about going through changes (I am at a stage where a lot is changing in my life and have not yet found the words to write about it.)
Also I tend to favour;
- The correct use of spelling and grammar
- Nothing to Epic
- Something personal or loaded with feelings
But I am not fussy; I just want emotions which are beautifully woven in to words.
I am now allowing prewritten poems but really like something fresh. I also have a bank of quotes, lyrics and pictures if you would like some more inspiration. Just message me and I will send you something back if you want it, if not go wherever your heart takes you.
With regards to rules it is all basic common sense, follow what is normally expected and I am sure you will be fine.
Thanks for your interest and I will look forward to reading all your entries if you choose to enter.
P.S. Points are likely to change and increase.
