Help: Any poets out there?

just the urge to write ---and at times certain emotions 

Thanks Rajni for sharing your views!

Emotions and situations around  me... Just my love to write and express myself in words

Thanks Yogita for sharing your views!

We poets write out the things we percieve from our surrounding. Inspirations are all around may it be a blazing sun or a tiny particle. situatiins , experiences and emotiins are a great contribution.

Thanks.

That's something, friend Shraddha, I'm glad to meet a fellow poet on this journey!

Hi Xavier,

Inspiration is all around, day to day, insignificant experiences can seed poetry/writing.  There are lean periods where one gets stuck, or produces stuff that's not satisfactory. Personally, I find not obsessing about writing helps. Reading helps, walking outdoors can help too sometimes, a break from the routine of writing.  A true poet and his poetry can't be separated for long :) all the best with your writing.

What inspires me to write?

The thrill of expressing myself in a way I have never known before.

The joy of seeing my own reflection in written words and sentiments sourced somewhere from within.

The satisfaction of helping people who are on a similar journey to mine.

The happiness of creating, building and nurturing something on my own.

That's a good question, Xavier! I am a travel blogger, not a poet but I think as bloggers, deep down we are all poets... just that our ways of expressing poetries are via different mediums. Just a thought. Good luck with yours! 

The two ends of life - pain and happiness - and anything in between - inspires.

The best of my poems come out when I am facing a deep emotion. It can be anything from happiness, love, pain or even anger... when it's very intense, the words spill out. 

mostly i love to write, whenever i am tarveeling and non living things inspire me a lot, i never wrote anything in english, writing in hindi helps me a lot to show my feelings 

About things and people who inspire me or affect me on an emotional level

I've written just one poem, atleast on my blog. A rather juvenile one.

I think many are there!

Sadness

Solitude 

A complex question... because anything from money to applause could be the reason for many of us. Though the real writer within isn't bothered about these things as all that matters is having given lines (in words or the sort that a painter or an artist does) a worthy reason to exist.

The surroundings and the incidents around, big or small.

Admiring everyday life is the speciality of poetry

Reading.

Reading lines as well as between the lines.

By the way, even the daily newspaper is full of prompts that can be written about...

   first,natural suroundings are my inspiration, next great poets &their works
