I am having some difficulties writing something in a simple way such thing describing what happen to my kind of days. Poetry is what I usually write and being a writer of such I like to play with words and make them looks complex. But since I am in this kind of format here I am trying to adjust myself. Transition is hard but hopefully, I can adjust my writing style as soon as possible in order for me to share more discussion here.

Some prose can actually do okay, even expressed poetically. I am sure you will find your way to express and discuss. Yes, original work usually just gets a polite comment of "nice" or "good".

Actually, I am not good at prose also. I'm really not good in paragraph thing, sometimes I don't know where to stop, put commas, period etc... ha ha... But I know I will definitely learn the basics here. "Practice makes perfect" they used to say.

What I observe here is that most posting talks about day by day life activities. So, I think I will do that also.

I'm glad you enjoy poetry. Sadly, most of my stuff was already posted in another site and re-posting them here is prohibited.

I am a poet and writer online. It is not too difficult to adjust it just takes some time. I know that sometimes I have written and added too many rhymes and that is only good for poetry.

Glad to meet you here co-poet. Definitely and of course I need a lot practice. I'm not used to writing paragraph but I think it is a must now since poems is not really a good stuff for discussion. Readers will only say "good" "nice" and "great" no more follow-up.

Many people write poetry here. You can write whatever your heart wants. Everything is accepted, as long as there's no vulgarity in it and it's your own work.

Where do you normally publish your poetry? I agree; the transition is somewhat different, but so are lyrics when we sing. And then to converse normally.
