Thumbs up Answer: How do you write in poem form?

Hi Gretchen,

I'm happy to help you with formatting your poems in Microsoft Word! Here are some steps you can follow to make your poems look like poems:
  1. Change the page layout: Go to the Layout tab and click on Margins. Select Narrow or Moderate to create more white space on the page.
  2. Adjust the line spacing: Go to the Home tab and click on the arrow next to Line Spacing. Select 1.5 or 2.0 to create more space between each line.
  3. Use a different font: Choose a font that looks more like handwriting or calligraphy to give your poems a more artistic feel. Some good options include "Lucida Handwriting," "Segoe Script," or "Brush Script MT."
  4. Center your text: Highlight your poem and click on the "Center" button in the "Paragraph" section of the "Home" tab. This will make your poem look more visually appealing and centered on the page.
  5. Add line breaks: To create line breaks between each line of your poem, press "Shift + Enter" instead of just "Enter." This will create a new line without adding extra space between the lines.
  6. Use columns: If you want to create a more traditional-looking poem, you can use columns to create a narrower text block. Go to the "Layout" tab and click on "Columns." Select "Two" or "Three" columns to create a more visually interesting layout.

I hope these tips help you format your poems in Microsoft Word!
