How to feel like a 19th-century poet
19th-century poets are simply passionate
Poets have always fallen in love with me, especially 19th-century poets. The way they wrote, how they behaved, and the feelings they put in their poetry, all fascinated me.
“Poetry is the words of a soul that we put into paper” -Marta Henriques
I really like poetry despite not knowing how to write it, however, today I’m going to leave here some tips on how to feel like a poet of this time.
If they’re like me, I’m sure they’ll love it.
→ Romanticise most things because you can
Life is beautiful, we just need to see it in our hearts.
→ Heartfelt letters to all those you love
This is such an awesome way to remember how our ancestors wrote and communicated.
A past that wasn’t as far away as we thought.
In my grandparents’ time, they were still communicating with letters.
→ Look up and admire the stars
This is amazing, i don’t need to explain why right?
→ Constant ravings of life and death
Life and death are such a contrast, the both are the existence of everything in only two words.
→ Abandon all civilization and live in the nature
If I was a poet in the 19th century, I would like to live in the middle of the forest and enjoy the sounds of nature.
→ Keep a journal with your poetry and feelings
Like a memoir, where you can write all the things that you want, don’t think, just write.
