Poems have been used as a method of expressing love and passion for centuries. There are a number of forms to choose from that can allow you to express yourself. However whether it is a limerick or a Plutrachian sonnet there are certain rules and principles that can help you to develop your writing. While poetry can be very personal with the right approach you can develop a structure to make your passionate poetry more effective.
The first thing to emphasise is that poems do not have to rhyme. This may seem obvious but a lot of people do not realise that this does not necessarily have to be the case. Indeed when people think of poetry they often think of rhyming and rhyme schemes. However you do not necessarily need a poem for it to rhyme in order to have a structure.
Of course in order to know how to write something passionately you need to know the definition of the word passion. It may not necessarily refer to love or sex. Equally it can refer to something you love in the sense of something that strongly inspires you such as a love of nature.
However the dictionary definition is not enough to find out what passion means and more importantly what it means to you. A good way is to brainstorm the word. Do not concentrate too hard. There are no right or wrong answers as you are using this to generate ideas. Other ways of doing this is to write notes about personal experiences, dreams and so forth as this will make it easier to inspire you.
Passion can also be about something you love in the sense of something that is personal. Indeed this is why a lot of people write poems for themselves they may not necessarily show other people. However even then it helps to develop a structure and ideas as this makes it easier to express what you want to say.
Once you have got the images down it then becomes easier to put them into a structure. The important thing to remember is that a structure does not necessarily mean that your poem needs to rhyme. What it does mean is restricting the length of the poem and the amount of syllables on each line. This may sound restrictive but as a lot of creative writing tutors will tell you structures can often ironically make it easier for writers to creatively express themselves.
You can then begin to put them into a structure. To start with you should aim to write what you want in 20 to 30 lines with around 10 words or syllables per line. How you line up those words, syllables and lines will affect the rhythm of what you write. If you find rhyme works for what you want to put this is fine. There is no real right or wrong but it does help to read it out loud as you can then adjust the emphasis accordingly.
In short developing a poem that expreseses passion takes time. With the right approach you can learn to write it in an effective way. As well as looking for classes and tutors in your local area it helps to look up examples of poetry from other writers as this will help you to develop your own style.
