famous poems

Put your thoughts into some kind of free verse format, a column of lines, roughly the same length, which may rhyme but don't need to. There are numerous steps to sharing a love poem with someone you care about.

A love poem does not need to be well written, it comes from the heart. Poetry has been used by men and women for centuries to express feelings of love. Don't use complicated language, keep it simple.

Writing about a person who is no longer alive is very difficult and writing about their death is worse. A poem can be about the life of the one who has passed or just kind words. Write down as many as you d like to include in your poem.

What a treasure the poem will be. It can be framed, written in a card, spoken over the phone, recited one to one or even emailed if time is not on your side.
