Basics about poetry In this series of articles, I will give you short tips about writing poetry. I will not write things that are complicated, nor will I write long paragraphs.  I am someone interested only with basics. If you have your contributions based on my article point them out. Poetry is about patterns and rhythm This is something you should understand. When writing a poem you are creating patterns and rhythms. However, you should also be communicating something to your readers. Patterns are shown by how the poem looks like. For example, one pattern is to have every stanza of a poem having the same number of lines. Each stanza may have four lines, for example. The other pattern is on the length of the lines.

I have never thought of writing a bit about myself until one of my new partners gave me that suggestion.  So I waste no time, I have to do that. However, in this article, I will provide only the facts related to my writing career. Background information I grew up liking reading and writing poems. Apart from this I equally enjoyed debating. I started serious writing in 1994 when I was doing my teacher education. This means by 2019, I have been writing for 24 years, week by week. My main genres of writing are poetry, articles and short stories. But my heart is with poetry. Qualifications related to writing In a bid to improve my writing capabilities, I studied a number of courses. First, I did a Diploma in Education, from the University of Zimbabwe. Thereafter, I worked as a teacher for nine years. I also did a poetry writing course, that lasted me four years, from the Writers’ Bureau ( United Kingdom). After completing the poetry course, I undertook the Comprehensive Writin
