Personification exercises are amongst the most interesting poetry exercises there are - by all means, have a go! This is mine today, I enjoyed writing it, and I hope you enjoy reading the personification poem "I am the wind" :-)</p> Sat, 20 Feb 2010 11:29:31 +0000 http://1-poem.com/laura_ingalls_poetry_exercise.htm http://1-poem.com/laura_ingalls_poetry_exercise.htm <p>For many years now, I have routinely recommended Laura Ingall's "Little House On The Prairie" as THE book to choose for people who want to <a href="http://1-nlp.com/can_you_read_are_you_sure.htm" title="Reading properly - can you read?">learn to read properly</a> - like a proper reader would, not sounding out words on a string but stepping into an alternate reality where you feel, see, hear and EXPERIENCE the story. The reason for this is that Laura Ingalls used to describe the world to her blind sister Mary and thus became an expert at "making the world come to life" for another person in as few words as possible. If, as a writer of poetry or a writer in general, you would like to make it easy for your readers to step into YOUR reality, then Laura Ingalls is the perfect model for this.</p> <p>Here is a simple poetry exercise based on Laura Ingalls and her unique experiences.</p> Sat, 20 Feb 2010 11:00:50 +0000 http://1-poem.com/poetry_exercise_sylvia_plath_creative_flow.htm http://1-poem.com/poetry_exercise_sylvia_plath_creative_flow.htm <p>This poetry exercise from 2003 has helped lots of people "get into the flow" of writing poetry that doesn't come from the thinking mind since it was first published. A very useful poetry exercise that goes way beyond "just writing poetry" and every time I do this, I am again and again amazed at the wonderful sensations that come when visions, feelings, images and energies simply stream into your mind, and through your fingertips onto the keyboard.
