A An environmental poem can take the form of any poem type,but the content of an environmental poem is the same regardless of struc?ture. All environmental poems have the environment at their core. Though the subject matter may seem limited,there are many ways a poet can present the material to make it interesting. Writing an effective environ?mental poem requires nothing more than a creative imagination and an interest in expounding upon our natural surroundings.
Choose a topic. You can write about saving the world as a whole,but try to narrow the subjects of your poems down to individual issues within the broad spec?trum of the environment. This is not only a good way to enlarge your use of the ma?terial at your disposal,but it can often produce poetic material you may not touch upon when you deal with the broad topic. Jot down words about the environment in a notebook. Include a list of adjectives that might work for what you have in mind.
Write the first line that comes to mind having to do with the environmental subject you chose. Refer to your notes to spark the idea. Four effective opening lines might be something like:
Release the rains Though they are black With the toxic waste Of man's foolishness Think about the opening stanza and ask yourself where you're going with it. The poem may set itself up for free form. Consider making structural and rhyme scheme decisions based upon the environmental content of the poem. Is there a way to use rhythm and metre to improve your message?
Use analogy,metaphor (隐喻) ，and word play to give your environmental poem some literary weight. Try something like this：
Tsunami tides wave goodbye As they move in and leave Again Using the word "wave" is a play on words.
Read poems about the environment. One of the best ways to learn to write any type of poetry is to read the work of poets. The more you read and build an ear for rhyme and metre,the better you will be able to develop your own work.
