You left this comment on one of my poems:

I feel so wierd writing reviews cuz i read everyone elses and they all talk like they know all this stuff about poetry.
Im just a 13 year old girl, and im not great at it but i love poetry. Please could you review my poems when i post them. i want your advice cuz youre great at writing.
Thanks

I want you to know that you know all you need to about writing poetry....you know that you like it. Write with your heart, write what you feel and never let anyone tell you to do otherwise. If you put your heart and soul into what you write, the style matters not. With experience and practice you will come into your own as a poet. In the interim, just write! Experiment. Most importantly be true to yourself.
