A Piece Of My Heart

Structured Poetry?!

So, something very strange happened to me today (yesterday?). It was like an out of body experience almost. I felt lost in myself, but completely separate from myself at the same time. I didn't notice the passage of time. I felt like I suddenly acquired the taste for something that I used to dislike as a kid. Now, I'm not claiming what I wrote is any good, but it is still an accomplishment for me. Somehow, I managed to write two structured, rhyming poems today! Not one, TWO! I used to think I couldn't write poetry if I was trapped by a form, but these two just spilled out of me.

Real poets out there, please let me know if I'm on the right track. I'm early in my experimentation and want to learn more, so pointers would be super helpful

Ahem? No time to mention me, eh? I see how it is ... Just keep thinking this stuff is your work. You told me to hold this Sit a long time ago, but that won't stop my creative juices from flowing!
