“Ane, Ate From The O’ Eden Tree”


Ply not flesh sole, yore treat soils plenty
And sift hundredth bodes, ane thus froth
O’ Eden trees unto roots hath, ane thus amplify
And abreast thy sidle, as whom vanilla froth
Bereft hundredth souls, not dead but amplified

Athwart thy, betwixt youth and writhe unto rye
Ane thus hundredth tree amidst yore tree roots
And cosset art selves as lofty men, midst froth
Nay o’ flute sidle, and knightly scorns aloft his billow
Dance with delight as whom vanilla froth’ sow width

Intrigue plains stride and lesser midst-summer grain
And bereft hundredth roots sidle abreast thin leaf ‘sty
O’ moon gape, and shimmers O’ Eden trees merge as knights
Entwine like vines’ ane thus slumber till spring burrows
And hundredth souls, recite the cherry blossoms like trees
And tasted like vanilla froth, and breathe like souls
Not dead but amplified like knights, Ane thus lofty men
Ane, Ate From The O’ Eden Tree



"Thus Lord pursues our talents, thus perfect line's art often "human"
"Time is new, So i've copied writted these words. Do i have what it take's to become a famouse writer, oh i'm 19- been writing since 17

Come into the 21st century. Read poets of the last 100 years. Use language as it is now written. Read 100 poems for each you attempt to write.



Poetry does not have to rhyme, but rhythm is important.



You must read as much as you can and as many different styles as you can, classic and contemporary; free verse and structured forms. Two good anthologies: Staying Alive, Real poems for Unreal Times edited by Neil Astley and Garrison Keillor's Good Poems. Two books on writing that will help guide you are Mary Oliver's A Poetry Handbook and The Poetry Home Repair Kit from Ted Kooser.



There are many good sites on line where you can read poetry daily or browse the archives:



Academy of Americans Poets

Poetry Daily

Verse Daily

The Writer's Almanac

Ploughshares

Rattle

Poetry 180

Poetry Foundation



And if you're looking for more poets, here's a very short list. Have fun!

Fav: Not sure. Least fav: I think Sylvia Plath. Her legend was blown way out because of her suicide at 30. But let's be honest, her poetry is garbage. Sylvia only started writing decent poetry in the last year of her life, but even then....I just wasn't impressed. Does dying young make someones work more important? I find the dying young legacy a joke these days......Sid Vicious died at 21, but he was a terrible musician. I'm straying off topic, but you know what I mean man. I honestly find the person Sylvia was fascinating though, I have read through her letters, and she had such a great mind....honestly I find her letters much more interesting than her poetry. A shame Ted burnt the letters she wrote the last 3 months of her life.

Is this a trick? Have you posted a poem by Walter Scott or some other 18th century writer, claiming that you wrote it, to make fun of it? Please say "yes," because if this actually IS your work, you're doomed to failure. The 18th century is over -- we're in the 21st century now, and we're concerned with 21st century issues. Your writing is opaque, obtuse and impenetrable. You're in love with words, not with life or people.
