What do you think of my poem?

Question

What does it mean?


She waits, pen in hand,
Hoping the words will soon appear
But the paper remains blank as her mind races
So many words to write… none to choose
Her hands twitched for a pen
As the thought occurred
A burst of excitement along with it
Her temper will be tested as the pen refuses to write
Or maybe her mind just refuses to let it…

I like it. Here's some advice about how to get out of the writer's-block slump!

Re-scetch details of your main characters - looks, mannerisms, background, etc. Write the details down - or even draw them if you are a visual person.

Then take your main character or characters and imagine them in some new odd/out of the ordinary (out of your current work's context) places or scenarios – anything goes! Write down ideas on what would have to happen to your type of character or how they would react to the scenario you placed them in.

This may seem futile, but it will help you flesh out your characters further and give you insight into what you may want to happen to this type of character in a potential story. You may even come up with multiple story lines and can see if one of them just seems to be the best or easiest to continue

Strong well-crafted main characters can inspire readers to love your story as well as drive you to write a great story for these imagined beings to be in! :-)

This should get you going. Then you may want to write an outline of you story (a kind of synopsis), including the ending. I have heard that John Irving writes his endings first, down to the last line, and works backwards. The idea of the outline is to give you goals as you proceed. Writing the ending first may give you the "spark" you seek - and also give you something to strive for.

You're a great writer. This is definitely different, but extremely unique in my opinion. You should keep writing, because it's good stuff. I believe that writing like this is the sign of a very bright future for a very bright person. I would love to read more. Keep on going, and believing. You can do it. I believe you can. Writing is your star. Let it shine.

Interesting

Answer 5

Pretty good, but the line, "Her hands twitched for a pen" seems awkward, doesn't she already have a pen in hand?

Answer 6

I love it! It makes alot of sense i6t could be used for something realistic or even fantasy. I think it really explains what its like to write and have nothing to write about. I can imagine it and I think its a really good poem.

Answer 7

Answer 8

what does your poem mean?
hmm..actually im not a good critic...but in my opinion...its kinda vague...there are lines which doesnt pertain to what you really meant....but....somehow i understand what you are trying to say....
as i see it...your poem is about a girl who want to express herself but can hardly choose the right and exact words to describe what she really want to say....hehehe....
i guess your poem is talking about me....the same thing is happening to me,also...life is ironic isnt it.?!?u want to express yourself..but words couldnt define it!!!!
well,its really hard to write a poem...and its so nice of yoiu coz you've written one..keep it up!!
i guess you should practice more..if poetry is your thing.....you can be like Robert Frost someday,he's a good one..and you can be too...
