Rhyme...?!!!

well..I noticed that there are alot of poets here focus on the rhyme not on the meanings that I-most of times-find the rhyme kinda forced in the poem.
and so I find No meanings and no convinced syllables

what do you think???

It's true that some poems don't mean anything, and it's true that rhyming is not the most important point, for me it's just a little bonus...

When I write my poems, I write it as I feel it, then when I know a word that can replace the one I used that rhymes correctly I use it.
I must admit, sometimes I force my poems to rhyme, but if I don't find a way to make it rhyme with a meaning, then I just forget that rhyme and go on to the other one.

well Mat, I respect your opinion..as for me, yeh sometimes I force my poem to rhyme too but I try my best to make the sentences convinced..bnut sometimes I find a sentence not convinced to the poem at all
that was my point
and Bob..I don't really get your point...! could you be more clear??

^^ I agree.

Rhymes are only but a small facet of writing poetry and are never necessary, I personally judge a poem not by whether it rhymes well or not. For me I don't care if the poem does not ryhme at all.

I will focus on the composition, the begining, the transition and the conclusion. The diction, structure, flow, the story and any message the poem is delivering. Those are far more important then rhymes ever will be.

I hate rhyme. But stamp me guilty... i do rhyme in some of my poetry.
Being a musician, I often find myself creating this rhythmatic tone most of the time. But as I have became more open to the different forms of poetry, I find rhyming useless untill theres a point to it. I do, however use rhyme when i've got a well thought out story-not forcing my words. But when im just writing to write, i hate forcing words. So therefore i dont.

Some people Ive noticed create their poetry around words. THATS NOT COOL. lol
Words are ment to express our sences, our feelings. And when someone is trying to create a poem with one sound... the message is totaly not being put out. It makes the poem seem amature.
i believe poetry isnt all about the sound. Its about the message and how well you can picture or feel whats going on and really truley understand it.

And some people i guess 'feel' their poetry on how well they can understand the simplicity of the words going together. but like i said, its not about the words, moreless. its about the message. the picture. the meaning.

Some people can't rhyme and are simplistic and amateurish in there rhyming and rhyme scheme. That being said, there are some others, whom although very expressive in their poetry, with emotion, feeling, and a message behind and in their works, who write only jumbled words and feelings without any artistic beauty or value. As those who can't rhyme but forcefully try to, still, don't understand that they need more than just a rhyming pattern for good poetry, those who just write their feeling don't understand that it isn't the feelings that make poetry art, but the choice of words, word play, the ability to eloquently and elegantly express thoughts, ideas, ideals, and emotions, the ability to create music with words (a rhythmic flow), to paint a picture, trough verbal expression – using nouns, verbs, adverbs, adjective(most explicitly), pronouns, predicates, rhythm and personification to achieve a desired result or/and an artful beauty. Yes, bad rhyming makes bad poetry, but also, jumble word and/or emotion can do the same!!!

Ok thank you guyz for ur comments
I have to say I DON'T hate rhyme as long as the words are connected to each other and have a good meanings..I'm not really talented but at least thats what I think!

ONLY IF THE WORDS ARE CONNECTED TO EACH OTHER!
