How To Write Poems Of Encouragement

By Dawn Williams


To be a good poet means that you have to find natural rhymes of everyday activities of life and be able to express them fluently in words. This is especially for those that are writing poems of encouragement. There are numerous poems that have been written that are meant to give inspiration, as a poet one must strive to be as original and as unique as possible.

One of the ways of writing verses that are original is looking at the surrounding environment. You can get inspiration from anything and that can be the center point of your poem. To be able to choose something that is in the environment you have to be creative and original.

You should have your writing tools ready when planning to write an encouraging verse to someone. When ideas start to stream in, it might be difficult to be able to remember them later, thus one should have the materials ready. It could be a pen and paper, or a recording device that can be used to transcribe the information later. This will be helpful to capture the thoughts as they flow.

You should ensure that the environment is conducive when it comes to writing poems of encouragement. If need be, you can put some background music that will set the mood that you are aiming to achieve. You should feel as comfortable and as inspired as possible to be able to pass the same message to others.

Reading inspiring verses that have been writing by other people will have you inspired and in the right state of mind to be able to write something valuable. Being encouraged will help you write what is in the heart and also be able to encourage other people. You should not hold back any encouraging feeling that you will feel instead you should explore it.

Another method to be original is by writing from another person point of view. Looking at something or a situation not in your shoes but in the eyes of a different person, or expressing ideas how another person would have done is a great idea. Try to figure out their feelings and emotions. Instead of using certain words you can use imagery as a means of being as original as possible.

Being original is not an easy task, one has to go beyond their imagination so as to come up with great ideas. Another thing that will help you to be original is writing passionately about something that you are not passionate about. Irony is a key that will open doors to originality and unique work.

Poems of encouragement go a long way because you might end up giving hope to someone that you were not expecting. Do not lose hope when you write and not give up on writing, write as much as you can and strive to be original every time you write. Being unique is not an easy task but when you believe in yourself and work hard, chances of writing a poem that is original are high.
