Do you think I'm too young to write. I'm only 12 but a lot of my poems are around more mature things like love and death and hardships. But the thing I don't get is that I'm 12 but it doesn't mean I haven't faced life. Yet still many say I'm too young to write and I don't know what I'm talking about...what do you think? |

Personally, I don't think you are EVER too young to write. My 13 year old son wrote a poem about love for school and a girl took a copy home and her mom cried when she read it...No one can stop you from writing except you, so if you want to write...go for it. Don't worry about what people say. I write for my own reasons not to please others... well, maybe my husband sometimes :o) but that's different. |

No, you're never too young to write and express your feelings. Writing poetry is a great way to show the world how you feel and to tell about you, and while writing you will come to understand yourself better. If you read your own poems they will reflect you and in that way it will be almost like looking at yourself. Just keep writing and as you mature and grow older your talent will increase and you will learn a lot of new things. Keep writing, |

Christina, you are definitely not too young! I'm only 12, too! Anyways, they're just jealous because you're an amazing writer and they just want to be able to write like you. The only person who can tell you you're too young is yourself, and you shouldn't ever tell yourself that, because you are not too young! Never stop writing! I wuv you! |

No way. You're never too young to write. I'm 12 years old. While some of my poems are silly, most are dark stuff. So, the only person who can stop you from wrting is you, so if you don't want to stop writing noone can make you stop. Don't stop writing just because you're young! |

Everyone's got to start somewhere, and maybe because you are younger you won't be reaching your full potential, but as you grow older and become more experienced, you will definately get better. I personally don't think anyone is too young to write (as long as they are physically capeable of holding a pen of course!) |

No one is too young to write. I was nine when I wrote 'die with the dusk, dragon'. Okay, it was just titled 'dragon' but, hey, i was nine. In my opinion, people learn best when they start early. That way you're still young and you face things with a more open mind than an adult. You then have more time in your life to learn and improve your work. |

No one is ever too young to write! I started writing poetry and stories fairly young and I guess that my first experience of this was in English classes at school. |

No one is too young to write or be told your too young to write . You can be young and have alot of feeling on your poem or be old and have no feeling in your poem . Writting a poem is all about feelig and expressing things . Poem writting i would think for anyone is a good way to express the way they are feeling in anyway .. or if they jsut have something to say ..... i started writting when i was young and haven't stopped since ..... If you feel you want to write go ahead and write . |

even though i didnt start writing till last year i think that the younger you get started writing the better you writing will be when you get older so if you want to make a job of it you'll do better |

no matter young or old, Poetry is much more than reading and writing. Poetry comes from the will to help others, the effort of sharing and being socially concerned. Poetry displays compassion for the world and its beings. Like the branches of a tree in the jungle, poetry reaches in many directions. Your poetry masterpiece, leaf by leaf, floats upon the wind and paints the colours of the universe. Each leaf is a tear of joy singing the universal song of poetry. |
