That depends on what kinda poem you wish to write, what you want to convey, and how you think. If you like to ryhm then do this...have every other line ryhm. Try to keep the sylables close so there is a rythm or beat.

This day seems far to long
I wonder if it will ever end
I know I must stay strong
But my will is starting to bend.

My approach to poetry works like this. I keep a little pocket notebook with me at all times. When I get a good line in my head, I write it down right away, or I keep repeating it in my head until I get a chance to write it down. Then I just wait for more lines to come, and build it up bit by bit. Afterwards I arrange it all into a coherent poem. I usually will come back to it a day after first writing it to see if I have fresh insights and can revise it to make it better. While rhyme and meter and all that jazz are not required per se, I tend to stick to them because it takes more skill and feels more like an art if it at least has a good rhythm to it. If it doesn't sound good or flow properly when spoken aloud, I drop it. So always think about what it would sound like spoken.

Get a sonnet that Shakespeare wrote and analyze it. He wrote with iambic pentameter, which is a style of writing that has three stanzas of four lines and two lines after. The first and third lines of each stanza rhymes, the second and fourth rhyming as well.

Ex. The A lines rhyme and the B lines rhyme.
A
B
A
B

The last two lines don't rhyme and are usually just a message to the reader, being separated from the writing.

The lines themselves flow from the heart. Shakespeare wrote from his heart and the beats of the heart going in a rhythem of quick, slow, quick slow. The lines have fourteen syllables.

If you try this and other forms of poetry, your mind will start to generate the ideas. The most important thing is to write from your heart and to feel what you write.

A poem doesn't even have to rymne. the easiest thing to do is speak your mind. Cause poetry is about who you are or what your feeling inside.

The easiest way is DEFINITELY free verse. it's a form of poetry not controlled by stanzas or rhyming of syllables- it can be anything!

ex-

i walk alone
the breeze in my eyes, mouth dry
rustling leaves echo and mock
the monster [inside] won't sleep.

To find something you want to write about...and then let it flow.

It usually helps if you're writing about something interesting, you care about, or something that has happened to you.
