Pleasure Gillian. Hope to have my next poetry post ready soon. Will be a pleasure to nominate you in it.
Most of the time I start with an image I'd like to share, and let the words come as I look at it. And combine it with whatever is happening around me at the time. Might be something someone says to me or something I hear on the radio or read.
Juxtiposing impressions from different sources can be interesting. I don't worry if my poems make sense ~ Because sometimes new and unexpected meanings come from the juxtapositions.
Everyone will have their own interpretation of what poetry is. For me it doesn't have to rhyme or meet any past 'rules.' Have fun. 🦋
That's a great idea . . . to start with an image. That's what I'll do. Thanks! 💙
