Anyone like poetry?
Or should I say, anyone else?

Mmm Hmm!

I finished it, then read it again, and thought, wow! hmy: This is, in fact, really amazing! Then I read it again, thinking, is the author really a forum member, here? It seemed impossible!

I'm quickly learning that nothing is impossible!

It was only from that point that I started acknowledging poetry.

Thank-you for taking the time to read my poem, can't believe its been a year already! Glad I could inspire you to enjoy this art form!

And I say YAAY to guys who are poets!

I full heartedly agree!

Heya Novi. Thanks for taking the time to post, and thank you so much for the kind words. Also, thanks for posting your poem here too.

You're welcome! Glad you liked my contribution as well.
Everything you've posted so far is well written and well worth the read. Keep em coming!

I especially like "On My Arm", "Soul Mates" and of course "Cardiac Arrest"

I wrote this poem last January, so I hope you don't mind if I share it here...

Heart Attack
~By Novacain~

I want to make you naughty
Even if you're nice
Your charm holds my heart
And inspires me to entice
I want to place my hands
And feel your pulse inside your chest
And try my best to save you
From your cardiac arrest
Once I've finished playing doctor
And I've finally brought you back
I'll remind you that I'll always be
Your little heart attack

Very nice... hmy: I could only wish I were able to put words together like this! I'm envious!

Perhaps I should make a resolution to at least give it a try once...

@ Novacain:

Nothing is impossible. Well said. I always say, Impossible is Nothing™...

Haha, Nice signature! Trailer Park Boys for the win! I know you'll get your Grade 10. It's 'peach n' cake.'

Mm...thank you for the kind words. Of course I like your contribution with your poem 'Cheers.' Also one of my favorite words in English apparently
It's well written, and it makes me smile every time I read it. I love all of the poems you've shared. Especially 'Heart Attack.' It's along the same lines as my poem I posted earlier called 'Cardiac Arrest.' 'Heart Attack' is awesome. It's so personal and well written. Thank you for sharing. Well done, as always Novi!

I hope you don't mind, but I liked 'Heart Attack' so much, I took the liberty of writing a reply of sorts for it. I hope you don't mind if I share it here.

I call it 'Dear Doctor.' I hope you like it.

~ [I]Dear Doctor ~
...
Luckily-for-me you're a cardiologist
For getting me out-of-this
& indulging your naughtiness
You're the one that I ought-to-kiss
It-could-have-gotten-fatal
On the operating-table
But my heart is operating-stable
So I've gotta-really-thank-you
Cause just a while ago
I was in a pitiful-position
in critical-condition
'til you made minimal-incisions
I'm grateful my Dear Doctor
Could've been my downfall
I know this may sound wrong...
But are you making house calls?

@ Astro Forever:

'Heart Attack' is very well put together indeed. Maybe you should give writing poetry a try, but you don't have to wait till the new year to make your resolution.

Thanks for reading and replying.


Cheers!

Thanks for the encouragement! I plan on gettin' my PFD too, so I can become a doctor.

I hope you don't mind, but I liked 'Heart Attack' so much, I took the liberty of writing a reply of sorts for it. I hope you don't mind if I share it here.

Sharing is caring.

I call it 'Dear Doctor.' I hope you like it.

I love it! Thanks for sharing!

So, I decided to try a different approach, on what I call "A Different Addiction".

Hope you enjoy.

Cheers.

Wow...thanks for replying Novi.
Your reply is nothing short of brilliant.
From the concept, to the title, to the structure, to the lines, and the rhymes, to the design layout...brilliant.
I love it, and I'm speechless, so I'll let my reply called "Medication" speak for itself.

Oh no, I'll give it a try earlier than that... I doubt I'll post it here (I will go with my first language and it probably won't be very interesting) but I'll still try.

Nice work, both of you! I love the different tone and the back and forth replies! Keep posting, it will remind me of my resolution, and perhaps inspire me.

Hey there, Ms Astro Forever. Thank you for the kind words. Glad to hear you'll be giving writing a try soon, but sad you probably won't post in the forums. French or not, I bet it would be an interesting read. Wonder what it would be like to read a poem written in French about Astroboy?

But, I understand though. I never used to share what I wrote either. (Thank you, Novacain )

Thanks again for reading and replying Ms. Astro Forever. Cheers!

About Astroboy? Hmmm... that would never have come to mind, but it's not a bad idea!

I have a question, I don't know if it's possible to answer it, but I'm wondering... How are you (any of you) thinking before/while writing a poem? Do you think of rhymes first? How do you approach it, do you do it just through logical thinking or is it just partly magically happening...? Do you approach it differently with experience?
