Tips on Writing Poetry

Hello all you lovely Three Years Down readers! I'm Baylee from the day i stopped making cents. I blog about life, love, animals and poetry.

I've been following Brittany's blog for a while now and it's one of my daily reads! I know you love her just as much as I do!! 

Today I'm here to share my secret writing tips (they aren't so secret) and a poem I've written. I hope you have as much fun reading it as I did sharing it.

First my personal tips for writing poetry:

1. Write from the heart

2. Get your point across in as few words as possible

3. Have a glass of wine first

The poem I'm sharing with you today is a poem I wrote for my fiance Joe. Us:

Joe's Poem by Baylee Benson

I love you with the strength of the universe imploding upon itself
I love you with every molecule in my being
I love every atom of you

I love you young
I love you old

I love you through every emotion
And through every song I hear
Through every word that has ever been written

I love the world, or universe, or God, and mother that made you
I love what you are not
And what you are

I see you in every thing I have ever done
I see you in every thing I do

The word "love" never even made sense, until there was you.

There you have it! I am a huge romantic sap.. but I hope you liked it!

Thank you Brittany for having me!!!!
