Does the best poetry come from the heart or the mind

Well the mind is definitely our very own personal library yet our heart when we put this into

our writings it brings them to life. Our heart is the center of ourselves.

I wrote some of my best poems

many years ago. Sadly I lost them. It was a time very long past that I went through a divorce. Well that

traumatic event is long done and over.

Well that inspired me to write for a whole year straight. My work now

pales in comparison I put my broken heart into them poems. The levels I could reach. The emotions so deep

so rich the words came alive with a life of their own.

The stories just leaped

off the paper at you. I would say your heart yes your mind knows the words but the feelings the depth of

emotions comes from the heart. Many gifted writers write straight from their very soul. So rich and

honest when you put your heart into the words.



Yes your mind is smart enough to do it. But your heart your very essence transferred onto the

paper will make the very words come alive and jump out at you. That 's how you can tell a good writer

from a great writer.

A great writer pours his very soul into the work.

A good writer can put the words together. Passion is what it's all about. You have to have that fire that

desire and be a good story teller too.

The

world of writing is amazing after all these centuries we still have enough imagination to write something

new. Wow there is so much to write about and so many ways to do it it boggles the mind. I for one love it

I can't get enough of it.

It's really very easy use your imagination and let the words flow

pick a topic and write. Or create a character and build a world around that character add a few more

characters and make a mystery or a childrens book.

Do you love to

teach. Childrens books are great for this. Do you like history. I love history or how to books. The list

is endless. Write what you love. I like debates and poetry too. Drama I also like very much real life

drama is facinating.

My dear friends writing from the heart heals them emotional wounds and

relieves stress. Making lists writing reminders, dairies and short plays. Wow all you have to do is

pickup a pen. Write a sweet poem to that new love.

Tell the world how

you feel in a good debate. Write a how to book to share your knowledge. But do it from the heart and you

will have the best results when you write in this way. Good luck n best wishes.



I do my best writing sipping on some good coffee or tea while listening to

classical or soft new age music. The ideas just start flowing especialy in the early hours of the

morning. Well now I said enough. Good luck once again my good friends.

Hello Jamerson,
What wise advise. I keep a journal.
It helps to write in it. At times I go for months without an entry. It's so important to guard your diary from snooping people, believe me I know through past experience.
This is why now I don't write all I would like in my diary anymore.
Wishing you a nice afternoon,
Lydia
