Don’t forget poetic devices. Similes, metaphors, alliteration, onomatopoeia, etc. are all your friends. These will bring the poem to life and make it much more exciting for the reader.

I am happy for her that she seems to appreciate and loves herself more and all that stuff, I really am, but then maybe write about that and don't bait me into buying something that it's not. While Ralph Waldo Emerson’s “Water” might be an obvious choice, the aptly titled poem reveals the often misunderstood nuances of water signs. While people might overlook water signs as simply moody, their underlying emotional reality is complex and powerful. Water signs can access not only heartbreak and sadness at a higher level than others in the zodiac, but also “joy . . . doubleth joy,” as Emerson’s poem suggests. And people shouldn’t underestimate the power water signs have to stand up for both themselves and for others—underneath their brooding exterior, water signs have the capacity to “elegantly destroy” in the face of injustice. POEMS syndrome occurs 1.5 times more frequently among men than women, and the typical age of onset is adults in their 50s. The exact cause of POEMS syndrome is unknown, but research suggests that a chemical called VEGF (vascular endothelial growth factor) plays an important role in this disease. I also love how in the introduction of her book she wrote that she was going to be "brutally honest", which made me so excited since I expected her to write about both the strengths and the weakness of the zodiac signs and maybe roast them a bit.Show, don’t tell. Instead of saying ‘it was cold’, explore how it was cold. What did it feel like? Was the air pinching and biting your skin? I think she roasted Geminis once (ironically not in the Geminis chapter though) but then again calling us "two faced" is far from the best insult I've ever heard about my rising sign.

Chronic ataxic neuropathy with ophthalmoplegia (CANOMAD) is an antibody-associated neuropathy that is caused by a certain type of antibody (IgM). The origin of the IgM antibodies is not known. This disease is more common in males than females, and the typical age of onset is during a patient’s 60s. The muscle pain and weakness is often severe but progresses more slowly than POEMS syndrome. In addition to their nurturing side, water signs may possess a high level of creativity, enhancing their connection to poetry and literary arts. Get carried away by the tide of these five poems, all of which represent water sign spirit and sentimentality.
