From love poetry which everyone sooner or later writes unitl they have children, then start writing child poetry or Teen poetry to reflect their growing kids.

What I like is when their kids poetry is diplayed on the refrigerator, a birth of a new poet. Poetry writing is something that blossoms with time as do the type of poems we write.

When I was younger I made my first book of poetry which at the time didnt have any romantic poetry in it whatsoever. I wrote more optimistically and inspirational, Poetry had a way of just flowing from my mind and through my hand to the paper.

As a teenager I wrote Dark Poetry,black and Grim, rarely funny,poetry though still flowed but with a different emotional mind set. Personally after years of writing poetry, I have done at all from rhyming poetry to Haiku poetry.

Ive even started writing Myspace poetry and have become quite the Myspace poet. My "poetry publishing Self " has written all over the web and I still cant get enough of it.

What is amazing is when I write an erotic poem and then five seconds later write a christian poem. Somehow it doesnt feel right but at the same time I feel I have to create whatever my mind is ready to produce.

Myspace poems tend to be more written as friendship poems probably because of the amount of friends I have there. I really dont choose a poetry type it chooses me and I just write whats there. I have only feelings to share with words, not even taught any poetry terms or many of the styles that are available. Either way my poetry is magnetic so I go to the poetry slams and throw some words out there and the poetry wars are on.

If you like to write dont write to have famous poetry, a masterpiece, write because you love it, it inspires you and you want and need to do it. Poetry is free, its a gift to give the world, friends and loved ones.

Good Luck and have fun Writing
