Lord Thompson Manor Poetry In Motion Author: Jim Brown
Some ballerina’s are so graceful that their movements are considered to be poetry in motion. The slight dip at the waist is a silent communiqu to another that they recognize their presence and are giving them a greeting. The passionate embraces that meld their bodies so tightly together give evidence to a passion that is bridled and unspoken. Ballet is poetry in perpetual motion that tells a story.

The poetic verses of a ballet might have been conveyed in a screenplay or taken from works of a master poet who created the poetic masterpiece centuries before. The words in the ballet are carefully choreographed movements instead of spoken word, where the tale emerges through the various acts. During each Act, the Director will use the motion of body and associated props to convey the message that was in the original poetry verses, screenplay, or novel.

Typically, many ballets are based on tragedies because people do not often find it necessary to express their joys in verses. The tragedies of lost loves or lost lives will typically lead to other people taking their own life. The poetry expressed on the stage will be far less poignant than the actual emotion that the writer felt when they comprised their words of love or emotion on paper so long ago.

Somebody must have been deeply touched by the poetry because they put the production of a screenplay into motion after they read it. They felt that the words were worthy enough to be expressed through the fluid movements of a ballet company up on stage. The coloring of the outfits and the dramatic stage props are clear evidence of the level of emotion that was derived from the poetic pieces of poetry that have probably been reread several times.

Every actor will place their own individual accent on the ballet performance. Their stance, their authentic appearance and the delivery of the poetic verses through bodily expressions will make a lasting impression on everyone in the audience. Some ballet performances are so breathtakingly beautiful and moving, that those women in the audience will have tears in their eyes before the last curtain drops.

This robust round of emotion is intensified by the orchestra throughout the performance of a ballet or play. Every poetic motion conveyed on stage is accented with the percussion instruments and most certainly the renderings of a sad violin or two. The dramas of the poetic illustrations on the stage are intensified by the resounding beat of drums and horns that cumulate into the background when a resounding round of applause is heard from the audience and everyone rises in a standing ovation.

Lord Thompson Manor Poetry Lives Author: Clive West
Poetry is as alive as it ever was although its modern form seems a world away from its traditional arrangement of close rhyme and tightly rhythmic verse. With the general tendency towards shortened English (eg textspeak) in common use and with the perceived (although not by all of us) reduced importance in grammar, it is not immediately obvious why anyone would want to keep alive a form of our language which is by definition circuitous. Yet, despite all this, poetry thrives.

Perhaps it is because deep down there is a poet in all of us. I think poetry comes into its own where prose fails to capture the overall picture we are trying to convey. For example, with prose, certain nouns and verbs tend to be tied together. As an illustration, let’s imagine we’ve seen a group of ducks crossing a very still duckpond first thing in the morning. In prose, it becomes very matter of fact – we need to use a collective noun like ‘flock’ or ‘paddling’ to describe the duck group and it ends up being, ‘A flock of ducks paddles gently across the still water of the pond’ whereas a poem might say, ‘A flotilla of ducks sails majestically across the mirror-smooth waters’.

Another use of poetry is where the poet alludes to a specific topic without actually naming it and where we want the reader to decide exactly what the poem is referring to. The same illustration, rewritten in this light would remove any specific naming of the ducks or even the water, leaving the reader of the poem to stop and think about what the poet is trying to say. Of course, the reader may come up with a totally different interpretation of the poetry but that is part of the charm of the poem – it is what we decide it to be. Thus our illustration now becomes, ‘Carved silhouettes of dappled feathers slice the morning mirror’.

Many of us have felt the urge to pen a few lines of verse at some time or other. Why? Why would we deliberately not choose the shortest way of saying something? The answer is similar to why we choose to play or listen to music. A poem is equivalent to a song and the poet is the musician or songwriter. I think that poetry extends beyond the simple level of just communicating a fact or message, it attempts to provide a 3-D picture. This is in the same way that a song is more than the lyrics and some notes played by an assorted motley of instruments.

Maybe you agree with me or then maybe you don’t, but that’s why we call it poetry!

Writing Memorable Poetry Verses

Memorable Lord Thompson Manor Poetry Verses Author: James Brown

There are many occasions in life that spur people into writing memorable poetry verses. Some of these verses might come when we fall in love for the first time or they may come when we are exposed to a memorable experience that touches our heart in one way or another. Writing memorable poetry verses will only require a conscious effort since there is no true form to use to express the writing of poetry.

Some of our earliest recollections about writing memorable poetry verses might come from grade school. The time tested exposure to red roses and violets will lead us to create several sentences that tell some other people why we love them so much. Perhaps they already know that sugar is sweet, but they may not have any clue that someone loves them and to hear that verse is a memorable experience.

Other people begin writing memorable poetry verses after they have buried a best friend. The older tombstones at the cemetery might have verses of poetry on them that convey the true spirit of a person that might have lived 100 years ago. Some people are so enchanted by the verses that they read on some of the tombstones that they begin writing memorable poetry verses that can be used on greeting cards.

Many poets will begin writing memorable poetry verses to convey a message. These messages might be long and drawn out and by the time the verses are completed the words have developed into a play. Shakespeare wrote Romeo and Juliet in Acts that turned the verses of poetry into real life conjectures that conveyed how seriously people take falling in love.

When writing memorable poetry verses, poets should consider the power of the written words and realize that some people are willing to commit suicide from the emotion that comes from reading the words put to paper. People choose to compare their lives and their relationships to Romeo and Juliet and end up making the wrong choices in how to deal with their disparity. The poet is not at fault for how others perceive the end product of the he spent writing memorable poetry verses that anyone could find solace or pleasure reading.

Love is a powerful emotion that can enrich lives and form commitments that may last a lifetime. Many marriage ceremonies include poetry that the Bride and Groom speak to each other. They are writing memorable poetry verses that convey words of commitment and fidelity but are more personable because they are spoken when they are standing in front of a congregation of family and friends.

The Art of Poetry Writing

The Art of Lord Thompson Manor Poetry Writing Author: Chris Kennelly

Poetry can be described in so many ways, but one general concept people have about poetry is, it stems from an emotion, an inspiration, or from a particular event in the poets life. Poetry is an art form that uses metaphors to express a certain thought or story.

While telling the tale as it is can be easier understood, poetry is not into expressing one definite meaning, but rather into making the reader think and determine for themselves what the writer may be trying to put forth. The artistic use of words to represent something is else is common in a lot of poetry writing styles and is viewed as the norm by most poetry writers. Poetry, however, is basically indefinable and this may be due to the multiple writing styles available to the art.

People who write poetry for the first time usually write from the top of their heads. This means, once inspiration hits them, they write down whatever they felt during that inspired moment in the simplest possible words that they could use. While this does not make for good poetry writing, this could be very well the base for a good poem.

Like all books and other reading material, poetry can only improve with rereading and some rewriting. Some of your emotions from that inspired moment may have been expressed accurately enough for you, however, to help it transcend into art, some careful scrutiny and deliberation may be needed to further complete your work of art.

While certain words may be accurate enough for the writer in terms of expressing the emotion they are trying to convey, this, however, does not ensure that the poem is good.

Here is where metaphors come into play. You can use certain comparisons to how you feel by pairing them off with things and happenings around you. For example, if you are feeling sad, you do not just write in your poem that you are feeling sad or there is sadness in you.

Try to find a phrase that can encompass what you feel without being too direct so as to leave the rest of the thinking to the imagination of your reader. A good comparison to the word sad would be dark or darkness. Another possible word you can use would be deep or depth.

These two word choices may not be totally negative or describe the word sad if taken all by itself, but combined with a few other words, you can artistically portray the feeling of sadness in your poem.

Not all poems are expressions of sadness and negativity, however, despite there being quite a number of them being created and having been created. This is not surprising since sorrow is a very strong emotion and writing can be quite an outlet for this feeling. Anger, as well, has found an outlet in putting pen to paper, along with confusion and even hate. More positive feelings are also common fodder for the poet, with the astounding number of love poetry that is available making this apparent. Other stronger emotions often used for poetry include happiness, and, well, the other predecessors and by-products of happiness.

Whatever the inspiration a person has for writing a poem or poems, poetry is indeed a literary art form that is, as indefinable as it is, something that a lot of us can do well, with a lot of feeling and some practice.

One of the rather useful tools to better yourself at poetry writing is your basic thesaurus. It offers you quite a few choices in terms of word selection to further express what you feel in your writing.
