How to compose a poem


According to the Myanmar tradition the poem can be created only by the wise. But we don’t know to what extent of knowledge is called for to become a wise for a person. That means we cannot identify the specific norms or ideals of a wise person. So, in my humble opinion the wise person is nothing to do with composing a poem. Then anyone is allowed to load a poem regardless of his intelligence level. Until the needlessness of becoming a wisdom holder to load a poem, some ideals are still necessary to do the like. These ideals are recommended for both of composing English and Myanmar poem. Those are…

1. You have to know the synonym of a word (in English or Myanmar)
2. A verse should be cohesive and rhythmic.
3. If a verse is appeared to be profundity cohesive and rhythmic entities are not necessary. (Especially in Modern poem)
4. Last but not the least is to install a mood in your heart.
If you have the above mentioned qualities it won’t be the hard work for you to load a poem and it make sure your magnum opus of poem is able to shoot the heart of the others.
