Be Different
Always strive to be a better poet. Never believe that you know everything, or are unable to develop your poetry any further.
If you have just written what your friends, family and you consider to be your best poem yet, don't be content., keep pushing yourself further.
Most poets have self-doubts, so I'm sure that even the Poet Laureates and classic poets were not satisfied with most of their works, and wanted to develop their writing further.
Take risks. Experiment with language, style, form, imagery, or even layout. I once wrote a 4 line poem on a juggling ball. I also wrote one where the words on the left hand side of the page were havinga debate with those laid out on the right.
I also spend time coming up with new ways to write about universal themes such as love, the past, and nature.
Be original. Be you. Be different.
