How to start writing a poem

Published almost 2 years ago • 1 min read

Does sitting down to write a poem (or anything else), intimidate you? Maybe you're not sure where to start or you think that you're not educated or smart enough to write a poem. Or maybe somewhere along the line you were told that a poem has to look a certain way or a sound a certain way. Wrong, wrong, and oh-so-wrong. Reader, you've got great things inside of you. Feel that? There are brilliant, wise, and important words stirring in your chest.

Let's release them. Once they start flowing, you'll be surprised at what you've been holding back.

If writing isn't something you've practiced much, it can seem daunting at first but I promise you, there are rich rewards in it for you. Things like clarity, resolve, understanding, and patience, just to name a few.

Want some inspiration? Any and all of the books in this pile will do it!

May I make a suggestion? Watch the video I made below, put on your favorite music (or try this), grab a delicious beverage, and just start writing.

Sending scribbles and paint smears + a whole lotta love, Robin xoxoxoxoxo

Take my word for it, each time you go through the content or work a little more on your incredible creations, it's a different experience and it just gets better and better. It is my dearest wish that...

Hola! I've recently returned from Mexico and I've been working on my Spanish. Want to meet me on Duolingo? Brushing up on Spanish is just one way I've been learning something new. I find that creating new things in my life gives each day more depth and meaning and I REALLY DIG THAT. A couple of days ago, I facilitated a creative workshop with Mindful Soul Center, which was fabulous and challenged my tech skills as I balanced the Zoom meeting, the slides, and tried to make sure I was looking...
