1. Read well-known poems as models for what to do.

   People like Walt Whitman, Robert Frost, Emily Dickinson, and Edgar Allan Poe all altered how poetry is read and written. Look up some poems by well-known poets to determine what you enjoy and find objectionable about each.

2. Get in tune with your emotions.

Poetry frequently overflows with emotion. If you are aware of your feelings throughout the day, you can easily incorporate them into your poetry. When you experience a strong emotion, try to keep track of what caused it.

      3.  Keep a journal or anything to write or type with if inspiration ever comes about.

      4.  Use writing prompts to give you inspiration. 

If you’re having trouble getting ideas about what to write, look up writing prompts that are specific to poetry. Be as creative as you can when reacting to the prompts, and don’t be afraid to take them in an unorthodox direction
