And writing one makes you feel so connected to yourself and your surrounding. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Few days ago while reading a book in our little garden, I saw at some distance there was a dove, trying to find twigs for the nest as the breeding season is approaching. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<!--more-->\n\n\n\n<p>For a moment, I found myself so lost in their world when I saw this pair of dove, flapping its wing, looking for twigs and flying back and forth to the nearby tree. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It made me wonder, how the dove parents are working for their future generation. And how utterly beautiful, magical moment is this that somehow I have become part of it. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So, I just scribbled a few words in my notebook-<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>sitting under<br>the warmth of sun<br>watching<br>a pair of dove<br>picking twigs<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It&#8217;s just a little poem, but it brings me back to the moment when I was reading the book and witnessing the magic of nature around me. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I feel that is how inspiration works, you observe the things around you, and you give words to it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It&#8217;s not necessary to write a perfect poem then and there, but you can always revise it later. Sometime even a line has the potential to create a masterpiece. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So, my simple strategy to write a poem is-<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Calm my mind and look around<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Always keeping a notebook or notes app handy, in case if some inspiration strikes<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Paying attention to my emotions<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Reading a lot<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Listening to people, nature and my own thoughts with open mind<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>And if I can&#8217;t write, I let the poems come naturally to me<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>I revise a lot of old drafts, old poems<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Always jot down the words that come to my mind for future reference <\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As an avid reader I always look up to the good writing and try to emulate if I like some style, not copying but understanding the structure. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Inspiration will come to you, and who knows you might surprise yourself. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>leafless pine<br>some poems<br>are like that too<br>just before<br>they turn green<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Give yourself time and do not stare at that blank page now \ud83d\ude00 <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you have some interesting journey of writing, share with me in comments. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Till then, I wish you inspiration, happy writing !!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Poems, I believe, are an extra-ordinary moment in our ordinary lives.
