Writing Poetry is not so difficult, but writing really good Poetry is something, which takes talent and deep thought. Some poets can rattle off Poems in streams of thought, just give them a cup of coffee and a good view of the meadow, while others take weeks to finish the next line. What makes one Poem better than the next?
Well first lets look at a Poem and analyze it shall we? Inspirational Poetry is the easiest to judge for the novice as it is something that reaches out an d strikes an emotional cord, carries you thru and then leaves your mind focused in thought, longing to return and re-read it over and over again? Does that sound about right? Is that the kind of Poetry that you wish to write; something that inspires the soul and wastes no time in tripping your emotional inner self? Lets us look at this Poem, by a novice poet, not well known, but it meets all the criteria of the top Poetry of our present day.

Now then this Poem on that page indeed inspires in that it speaks to the very heart of Inspiration, the Inspiration you, yourself must find. Do you understand what Inspiration is? You need to understand what it is to write about it and convey it to others if you are to write a truly inspiring Poem. For me, well I understand the Inspiration; I got it. I was kind of thinking of you know like find the Force be with you, find the force; in the back of my head while reading it, but then at the end, well it grabs you. Just find me, find Inspiration. Poems, which pull you and then make you think can inspire, because they sHow you the mirror to yourself you see?
In this Poem for me I saw the background, the road ahead and thought of all my travels, like searching to find meaning, reason to press on, you know like Why? I agree with that Poem and see Inspiration as a personal thing. I like it, do you like it too? I think it would make a great screen saver on my computer. I actually caught a tier on that one. The writer got me! HA. Good one; points on the board for that poet indeed.
For those of us who have pressed on, against the odds and found character in the long road of adversity, Inspiration is like a magical thing. Indeed, as a long distance runner and a 4-minute mile r in college, you look back and feel it all over again when you read a Poem like that; it is a great Poem. The training requirement to make your body perform at that level in running is intense and you dig deep as you pound the miles under your feet. I am sentimental when it comes to overcoming adversity; like the Rocky movie. I think this Poem would be a great Inspiration on the back of a shirt for a marathon trainer.
It should be sent to the NYC Marathon Committee, because it would be worthy on the back of the T-shirts or on posters along the way or for that guy who is 400 Lbs, walking across the country? Or the Frenchman who crossed the Pacific Ocean in a canoe, Hello! Put that Poem on the front of his boat. I think it is perfect for that. You know people who have never pushed beyond or experienced the character, which is built from triumph over adversity may not be able to relate, but I can. Can you? Can you share that with all of us too? When you read a Poem like that all you can say is Thanks, I needed that.
Now it is up to you to find your Inspiration and help others find theirs in your Poem. Writing Inspirational Poetry is difficult, but the rewards for getting it just right are worth the effort. You may be able to write it in an hour, it might take you weeks or a decade to say it; to say it in a way that offers a tier of hope from the reader as it grabs them, makes them think and sends them searching for the Inspiration to press on in their chosen endeavor. Do think on this.
