Paying The Poetry Price...Hell In A Handbasket Poem by Shaun Cronick

Just keep working at it Shaun, I'm sure you'll get there in the end! I love the opening lines, ' Trials and tribulations/ Haunt my poetry pen.'...marvellous. It's' a composing poetry can be incredibly frustrating at times' inspired five from me.

Some of us can relate to this wonderful write. How frustrating when we are on our way weaving a poem and the mind will not cooperate in the end leaving a half baked work of art. But there is always tomorrow and I hope our thoughts will not fly like birds leaving their destination. Liked this poem.So beautifully expressed and crafted. Five Stars! ! !

I think we've all experienced that frustrating feeling. The poetry course I'm currently studying encourages us to make numerous drafts of a poem before perfecting it. The main poem for my final assignment is now on to its sixth draft stage. I've now changed the form from blank verse to free verse. It has taken me weeks to get there but yoiu know what I think it will be worth it in the end. It's definitely a frustrating, but ever hopeful five from me!
