Writing poetry is the highest, noblest, art form; and poets are those who can feel what can be beautifully expressed in poetry, as poems. Poetic rhymes contribute to that. To rhyme poems is not difficult; rhyming is easy. This will tell you how to rhyme in poetry, compose rhyming poems -write a poem with verses that rhyme.Is there anyone who does not like and enjoy poetry -yet are not poems, poetry books, the least published? Why? Because only so few are true poets; few rhyme poems, few can compose a poem that rhymes -yet poetry most loved are poetry that rhyme, and it is easy to rhyme poems. Poetry and poets are encouraged by poetry contests; but are confused many poets in distinguishing between academic study of poets and their techniques, and writing the creative poem, the most loved poetry -poems that rhyme.The many techniques do not make poetry -at best they enhance poems ~just as knowledge of the techniques of mixing and applying colours on canvas does on its own make one an artist or a painting beautiful. If you have studied the techniques of writing poetry, this may have surprised you: some poets, even while going to great lengths to write metered verse, to such an extent cannot have appreciated truly even the reason for use of them that, while trying by use of them to make the verses sound pleasanter to the ear, they have used visual rhymes in their poems -rhymes with words spelt similarly but not sounding similar.In writing poetry you do not need technique to compose poems. Poetry books, courses tell of poets’ techniques in poems, regard them essential in writing poetry. Those are for formal study of poetry academically ~it is only then that you need to know the difference between similes and metaphors, and metric feet and about the iamb, the trochee, the anapaest, the dactyl, the amphibrach, the spondee, the pyrrhic, or what is a descriptive poem or narrative or dramatic or didactic poetry or light verse, let alone about e.g. sonnets and regular-sonnets or the rhyme-royal.. or even about what is masculine rhyme and what is feminine rhyme. You need only beautiful expression in poetry -rhymes help.Poetry is the poetic, beautiful, expression of the poet’s passion -that is not fixed as the symptoms of an ailment or the formula for calculating the strength of materials ~in poetry poets express passions sensibly and beautifully.. then, the academic fits poetry into technical categories enabling studying of poets and their poems. In writing poetry, composing poems, poets do not go by academics -academics go by poets.Passion can be about love or a lover, or anything -here are verses from a poem by the Cypriot writer, thinker, poet, the late Orhan Seyfi Ari (translated.) about the state the world :Neither the sun’s risen, nor the moon’s down gone,Even the guardian angels’ve asleep fallen,The djinn’s everywhere claiming the light,Destroying, destroying, at man’s suffering’s height! Here is how you can express yourself in rhyme, in poemsâ?¦Do the verses have to rhyme? Technically speaking, no. Technically a poem is simply elevated composition in prose or verse -beautifully written prose can be called a poem ~poetry is the expression of elevated or beautiful thought or imagination or feeling in appropriate language.What is ‘elevated’..? In poetry it is what can be expressed in picturesque or lyrical, or high winded language -it is what is capable of expression in prose or verse in a way that does justice in making the passion of a thought or imagination or feeling or emotion be transferred as excitedly as felt to another…What is ‘beautiful’..? In poetry too it is the quality that delightsâ?¦And ‘appropriate language’..? In poetry it means in language that the reader or the listener will understand and which is acceptable and will not put the reader or the listener off by belittling in his or her eyes the composer of the elevated and/or beautiful prose or verse, the poem, as lacking in manners or as so ignorant as to be incapable of expression in other than by use of e.g. four-letter words if there does not exit between the poet and the reader or the listener such intimacy.In writing poetry, to compose poems, this is all you need: make sense.. beautifullyâ?¦Let’s take an example in expressing the following:You are so beautiful!.. You turn me on!Is that passionate and beautiful a thing to express in poetry? Yes. Is it a poem? Not in the sense that most people expect it to be, in verse ~and you want people to enjoying what you write -as poetry; people love poems…Chop that into verses, then..? You are so beautiful!You turn me on!Is that poetry, a poem? Yes… Only as much as it was as prose, though ~unless you are in a position to argue with your reader that it is ‘free verse’ as many believe free verse to be -but what if your reader knows that to mean un-metered and points out to you that the poet celebrated over free verse, in fact, except as far goes his poetry that were special as part of some poems on a specific topic as a collection, almost totally wrote his non-experimental individual stand-alone poems (in the 1920s) all in rhyme..?! You might just as well have written it as prose and explain that in dictionaries technically that too is a poem… Rhyme enhances poems. Poetry in rhyme sound pleasanter -it adds to its beautyâ?¦ Why not ‘cash in’ on that in your poetry?To rhyme in poetry is not difficult as many think.. it is easyâ?¦Here is how to easily, quickly, rhyme your poem’s versesâ?¦So… What rhymes with ‘beautiful’ -hmnn.. yes.. ‘dutiful’ ~but, hold on.. it is not suitable, is it..? Not for what you want to express in the second verse of your poem… In poetry, if you can not quickly and easily think of a rhyme for your verses.. without loosing its meaning, you change the places of the words in your verse… In our poem the verses wereâ?¦You are so beautiful!You turn me on!They still express the very same thing, below.. plus.. would that not sound better, more like poetry, a poem, put as below?..So beautiful are you!Turn me on, you do!Now, those many people who would tell you that you just chopped into lines straight prose and called it verses can’t tell you that there is no difference between this as it is now and if it were straight prose, can they..? Of course not. These rhyme.How does one rhyme..? Many poets use a rhyming dictionary!Here is a way you might find enjoyable in writing poetryâ?¦Quickly run in your mind through the alphabetâ?¦ ‘a’.. Does a word quickly spring to mind.. no?.. Move on to.. ‘b’.. hmnn.. ‘boo’.. that rhymes with ‘you’ -but not what you want is it? What about ‘c’?.. Hey.. ‘coo’.. and it immediately brings to mind ‘woo’ -jot them down.. they are two more verses on the same lines: one ending ‘…. you woo’ the other ‘… I coo’…Now you have a poem, a quatrain -to all it is now poetry.So beautiful are youTurn me on, you do…â?¦.â?¦â?¦ you woo…â?¦â?¦.. â?¦ .. I cooAh, but does your romantic poem make sense? Of course -unless you are male and fancy ‘Nancy’ ~than, it is, of course……â?¦ ..â?¦â?¦ .. i woo…â?¦. â?¦ â?¦ you cooYou know best what in your poems you want to express beautifully.. something philosophical, satirical, patriotic, about nature, romance, loveâ?¦ 1. Make sense..2. Use rhyme…You can’t go wrong!A site on also views on peotry teaching of thinker-poet teacher Ari orhanseyfiari.com

Online poetry communities, in their simplest sense, are sites you join to share poems and to meet other poets who also share an interest in poetry. However, finding an exceptional poetry site, dedicated to its poets, is not quite that simple. With so many poetry sites out there, how do you choose which one is best for you?

1. Membership Fees: Some poetry communities say they are free, once you join, however, you have to “upgrade” for additional features. Other poetry sites rely on donations, and advertisements. Look for a site that is no more than $35.00 annually.

Bottom Line: Find a site that only charges you ONE fee to use EVERY feature on the site.

2. Site Features: Look for a site that has tons of features, not just a few lame areas of posting and reading poetry. A good rule of thumb is this: For every $2.00 you spend annually, you should find ONE UNIQUE Feature of the site. If you are willing to spend $40.00, then you should get at least 20 UNIQUE Features.

Bottom Line: Find a poetry site that offers as much bang for your buck as possible.

3. Communication System: An online poetry community should be a community. An internal mail system, and an active Bulletin Board—a place where poets share ideas—is a must.

Bottom Line: Find a site that has a few ways poets can communicate.

4. Feedback System: Examine not only HOW you receive feedback, but the QUALITY of that feedback. Will you simply be getting brief comments? Is there a point system in place? Does that point system address areas of analysis that are important to you?

Bottom Line: Find a site that has a quality review system that provides you the feedback you are looking for.

5. Recognition Programs: Most poetry sites function as a fancy bulletin board for posting poetry. A solid poetry site encourages friendly competition, and a way for you to measure your progress. Being able to rise up the ranks, gain recognition from your fellow poets is not only fun, but rewarding.

Bottom Line: Find a site that encourages several recognition programs and poet rankings.

6. Site Layout: A poetry site should be clean, inviting, friendly, and easy to navigate. Many sites are just the opposite: laden with ads, thousands of words, and links that bring you everywhere but where you ought to be.

Bottom Line: Find a site that is clean, fairly devoid of ads, strong linking and ease of organization.

7. Poetry Database: Most online poetry communities lack meaningful poetry research tools. A site that provides its poets with as many links to resources as possible, is one has your best interests at heart. Bottom Line: Find a site that helps you learn poetry forms, movements, history, poets, etc., one stop shopping if you will.

8. Awards: Poor sites have either no award system, or a poor awards system. Quality sites invest in their members. Would you rather win a quality award, or receive certificates, magnets and bumper stickers in the mail?

Bottom Line: Find a site that is dedicated to giving back to its community in the form of quality, timely awards.

9. Support: So often I hear poets lament the fact that “no one seems to be behind the wheel.” A quality site responds promptly to its members, usually less than 48 hours. Send a trial email, see how long it takes to hear back.

Bottom Line: Find a site that responds to your concerns, questions, or suggestions within 48 hours.

10. Free Trial: Avoid any poetry site that does not give you AT LEAST a 7 day free trial. You should be able to access ALL the site features, not just a few teasers.

Bottom Line: Find a site that allows you a generous, all access FREE TRIAL, so you can fully understand its community.

Finding the right online poetry community doesn’t have to be difficult. If you asked me what ONE thing I would look for it is this: The more features a poetry site offers its poets, the more likely your experience is going to be a great one.
