How to Do Birthday Poetry?

Birthday poems are sweet greetings and can make a birthday card extra special. Writing birthday poems can be easy especially if you have a theme. The birthday theme can be nostalgic, romantic, humorous, or with a sentimental style. Yet, birthday poems can be simple and written with less words. Make a birthday poem for a friend, for a family member, or for your romantic partner. 

Select stationery paper, stickers, or a birthday card in advance. Before you write your birthday poem on the card, make sure you draft a poem with your feelings and reflect on what you want to say. Be careful in writing too many personal things because the birthday card might be displayed for everyone to see it. Find a comfortable area to draft your poem. Think about the person that will receive the birthday poem. 

Read birthday poems to motivate you to write a poem. Remember your birthday moments and write how you felt. If the poem is written for someone you have known for many years, write something that can remind them about your friendship with them. Also, surprise them with a handwritten poem inside a birthday card or on stationery paper. 

Another way is to write a short birthday poem on a birthday tag. If they like picture frames, frame your handwritten birthday poem. Additionally, add a humorous element to the poem. Make sure your friend or your romantic partner will find it funny. If not write something that you think they might like to read in your handwritten poem. 

Rearrange the sentences and read it aloud. Write an Acrostic, Haiku, or write shorter sentences to make it easier to write your thoughts. Avoid using too many descriptive words and make sure it is written clearly. Lastly, write your birthday poem without rushing. Set up your birthday poem and write it on several pages. 

Write various birthday poems. Number your birthday poems. Read each poem aloud. Select one poem you think your friend, romantic partner, or family member might like. Then write your poem in a birthday card, in a tag, or frame it.  

Add a picture, a painting, or a small keychain to go with the birthday poem. Keep your birthday poem honest, sweet, and with positivity. Birthday poems can also be written for scrapbook pages. Use seasonal paper and personalize your birthday poem with their name. Below are websites with more ideas to inspire you to write your birthday poems.
