Night Poetry, Emotions, and Object Personification

Writing object personification in poetry can often be challenging. Yet, it can be difficult to write one’s thoughts on paper, especially if you must write about a specific object. However, selecting a theme for the object can make it easier to write about it. In the first example, the night sky and the stars were my inspiration for writing about object personification. However, write about nature, your senses, or other thoughts as your writing process. 

Experimenting with various sentences, reading it aloud, and adding feelings to objects can make the poems more descriptive. Yet, writing about feelings, emotions, and experiences can make you reflect on the inanimate objects from another perspective. In the second poem example, metal binder clips were the inspiration for poetry personification of objects. The poem can be funny, serious, or in any form of tone. Nonetheless, have fun writing various poems of object personification. 

 

Keep in mind how you want the poem to sound. Also, be aware of the writing styles and your overall perspective about the objects. Focus on one theme. Understand your thoughts and understand who will read it. Set aside your doubts about writing and free form poetry to help you write your thoughts. 

To write poetry with object personification, look at the object. Ask yourself how the object makes you feel. Also, what does the object remind you and write about it. Next, draft your poem by writing your responses to your questions. Re-read your poem. 

You can also use writing prompts. Additionally, you can close your eyes and think about the object if it were animated. Open your eyes and write slowly about what you are feeling. Another way is by drawing the object as an art animator. After you draw the object, write about your drawing. 

Practice writing object personification and adding drawings to it. Another way is to write your poem into a story that you wrote in your journal. Your children can also participate in writing object personification by using colors, sound effects, or other writing elements. Nevertheless, practice poetry appreciation and have fun sharing poetry. Here are websites about object personification in poetry.
