Free verse poetry is super easy to write. There are no rules, just the way I like it sometimes. I think this type of poetry is true to the heart, and all of my poems I wrote growing up were free verse. Of course, they were all love poems at the time, so by the time I grew up, I was pretty tired of them. Anyway, here are 2 that I wrote.
Summer Sky
Dollops of
Whipped cream clouds
Float
Across the blueberry syrup sky.
Catalyst
Water has no scent
Until it splashes on a hot July sidewalk
Lightning makes no sound
Until it strikes a tree down
The sound of my voice
Drops down to my feet
Unless a canyon wall scoops it back up
And tosses it back and forth
The wind is silent
Until it shakes the sleeping trees
And my heart goes unnoticed
Until it falls in love.
