Hasslefree Poetry Poem by Linda Ori
Hasslefree Poetry
Poems, like poets, have much to say -
They may describe a rainy day,
They may sing love songs light and gay
Or speak of deep despair;
Some poems are short and oh, so sweet -
Some complex and indescreet,
Some say nothing at all concrete
Just words that make no sense;
The poet knows what the poet means -
He may be writing about his dreams,
Or nothing more than a hill of beans
To catch the readers eye;
Why must poets follow rules?
Rhyme, and meter and other tools
Sometimes dull poetic jewels
Detracting from the flow;
Just open up and let it fly,
You'll never know unless you try -
Write poems that make the readers cry
Regardless of the form;
I like to call it hasslefree -
This personal type of poetry
That has a style uniquely 'me' -
Totally unpredictable!
hassle free poetry...easy to write easy to read easy to understand...just hang on to the first word and just ride through the poem...but structured and metered poems too are a joy to read and write...i enjoy both...love...nalini
'Just open up and let it fly' indeed, Good advice that I'd be wise to heed, I tend to spend my time too much in vain; Mysterious perhaps, but quite inane. Linda, this was a most enjoyable read. 'Hasslefree Poetry' certainly took some of my hassles of this trying day away. Thanks ever so much for sharing this one. Ever respectful, Greg
Hasslefree form makes perfect sense Linda. It's about touching others with beauty, whether harsh, 'terrible', sublime or otherwise. The poetry isn't in the form as you so rightly say. It's in the much less quantifiable elements. Wise words.x jim
Great idea, Linda. You're absolutely right. I had a student (around 8) who was puzzled about 'creative (improvised) dance' When I explained that she could dance as she chose, her comment was 'Oh? You mean, just follow your feet? ' I guess you mean, follow your fingers. Cleverly penned. love, Allie xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
very applicable, Linda, especially to myself. strong work. -Tailor

You hit the point.This is wat poetry is all abt.His/Her emotions n feelings all expressed in a train of words.Only the poet and somebody who can relate to his feelings can enjoy the poem the most.Lovely poem. Ashish.
