@kb-writer That poem is adorable!
So, I was wondering… Who inspires you the most in writing these styles of poems? And how do you brainstorm best?

A lot of my poetry then was inspired in part by Robert Frost and Robert Lous Stevenson, so it was very childlike and lighthearted. They all fall somewhere between cute and pitiful, but that’s one of my favorite nonsensical ones.
You should post an earlier poem! I love seeing that I’m not alone. 🙂

Claire de Lune is beautiful. I’ve wanted to play it for a while, so I finally decided to ask my teacher.
I would love to see your essay! I don’t know if you thought you attached it, but I didn’t see it in your post (it’s okay. I do that all the time!). Is there a way you could get it to me?
God’s sense of humor… I never thought of it…[Read more]

Hello everyone!
For some fun (and hilarious) poetry practice, I’ve decided to start a never-ending poem with you. Feel free to add a stanza or two whenever you feel like it.
The Never-Ending Poem
The poem began a little like this:
A long time ago there were words on a page.
Many a poet attempted to join.
There are so many words; who has…[Read more]

Sorry for not responding in a while. Life. 🙂
Haha! I don’t think I could feasibly pay for the trip. Rats! I still have my ingenious plan of offering Skype lessons that I need to stop procrastinating on. 🙂
His Arabesque 1 is beautiful! I’ve been working on his Claire de Lune recently. A beautiful piece. The comparison between Bach and…[Read more]

Hello again! Sorry I’ve been gone so long.
All these poems are so fun! Thank you all for what you’ve shared so far.
That’s so sweet and adorable! I can’t believe you wrote that one when you were only ten. Believe me, my Ten-year-old poems were not that good. 🙂
Haha! Your poem made me laugh! That’s great!

I have to say, my favorite of all the ideas is definitely Leonardo Da Vinci traveling to present day. @libby I like your idea too. The dialogue posted on the first page was brilliant as well. What if Da Vinci traveled to this little aspiring artist and said little boy and Da Vinci have a discussion on Mona Lisa each interpreting her from his…[Read more]

@libby Of course Libby. <3 *virtual internet hug* Prayed for you just now!

H. Jones replied to the topic Guild War #6 in the forum Announcements 7 years, 9 months ago
Okay, I have to say, I actually really love @libby ‘s idea. I think it could also be combined with the Mona Lisa perspective thing… especially if it were the haughty, diva Mona Lisa. Like, the boy might be like, “I don’t see what’s so great about you…” whilst the Mona Lisa might be like, “Boi???? You question my glory???? excUSE YOU!”
Might…[Read more]

KatherineH replied to the topic Guild War #6 in the forum Announcements 7 years, 9 months ago
I’m wondering if it’s possible to combine @sleepwalkingmk ‘s idea (esp. the dialogue there) and @libby ‘s idea with the little boy? Somehow? It would provide the story with a framework, while (if from Mona Lisa’s perspective) it would still be funny?

Gabrielle Pollack replied to the topic Guild War #6 in the forum Announcements 7 years, 9 months ago
Ok, Avensers. You’ve been throwing around some awesome ideas! I think it’s time to read through them, pick which ones you want to include in the story, polish them, and outline the piece. 🙂

@libby I’m so sorry this is happening to you, Libby. 🙁 I recently went through some heart scares, so I can relate to how frightening it can be. I’ll be praying. <3

Maybe someday I’ll turn out a poem that’s not emotionally distraught and personal, and I’ll submit it to the magazine!
Haha! I know the feeling. xD It’s not easy getting comfortable with sharing poetry, since it tends to be so deeply personal in one way or another. I’ve been sharing my poetry for about 2 years now, and I first had poetr…[Read more]
