The study and challenge of writing in Verse Form help hone our writing skills. The truth of the poem is what touches the reader but skilled writing is the delivery truck. If the truck hits potholes or runs off the road, the truth can get banged up or not delivered at all.

Writing in form is a great writing discipline. It is the exercise of the craft that delivers the soul.

"There are two men inside the artist,
the poet and the craftsman.
One is born a poet.
One becomes a craftsman. . ."
~ ~ Emile Zola to Cézanne, 16 April, 1860
