RE: A second poem: expressing my condolences

in #poem7 years ago

Thought I always needed to remain 'objective', not to cross the line of putting too much in it. But poetry is definitely sentimental as a personal outlet to vent my own emotions.

Thanks for another piece of priceless advice. Have a good day.

Descriptive is nice. The thing is, when you use 'may' or 'might' it no longer stays as objective. There's no necessary big rule, but generally, the more precise/descriptive you are, the more it helps.

The child misbehaved and got on grandma's nerve. It might not be the truth (that's a journalist's job), but you are definitely portraying a more emotional story ;)

Grateful for your help. Been learning lots from you. :-)
