Instructions
Step 1
Decide on the topic of the poem. Think about what you want to say, in what form to do it. Whether this is a serious lyric work, or humorous stanzas, you decide for yourself. Of course, the style of the poem should correspond to the reason for which you present them. For very special occasions, fervent verses are not always suitable.
Step 2
Think about the size of the poem. Will it be just one or a couple of stanzas, or if you want to compose a great piece. If it is going to be a big poem, think about how the events will develop in it, because for such a volume you need to prepare some kind of story. In a short literary work, you can only describe the qualities of a friend that appeal to you, thank her for something.
Step 3
Work on the rhymes. How they will be located in the poem is up to you. You can dwell on the classic forms, when the end of the first line rhymes with the end of the third, and the second line contains rhyme to the last in the stanza, the fourth line. There is also an option in which the lines rhyme in the following order: the first with the fourth, and the second with the third. This form is not commonly used. If you choose it, your poem will be more original. Other forms of versification are not recommended for beginners to write poetry.
Step 4
Try to rhyme with your friend's personality and personality. Indeed, in poetry, the greatest emphasis is placed on the end of the line. Start writing from the first stanza, and then, if you find the drawing of the poem correctly, the process will go on by itself. Of course, there can be difficulties. If you find it difficult to find a rhyme to any word, just replace it. Remember that your friend loves you and will not judge you harshly. Even the very fact that you wrote poetry for her will be very pleasant to her. Therefore, the main thing is not an ideal form, because she knows that you are not a poet. It is much more important to invest in the content a piece of your soul, a sea of positiveness and all your feelings for this person who plays an important role in your life.
