Writer’s Workshops: The Picture and your Senses

5/10/2022

 
"A poet should always have a beginner’s mindset when writing." -Michael Torres
 
This perspective will help the image form in our poetry clearly and specifically. The use of the five senses: taste, smell, touch, sound, sight can provide enough details so the reader can picture what’s happening. For example, he said to think of a poem as a photograph and not as a snapshot. You can describe a photograph, whereas the latter doesn't provide the whole picture.
The next time you sit down to write that inspiring thought, make sure to use as many senses to form the picture you want others to see. Oh, and it’s okay to let your imagination guide you.
 
Take a look at my published poem, “Matches.”
