Writing poetry in a second language (Spanish) So, I studied creative writing at university (in English), and one of my main goals from learning Spanish has been to be able to use it poetically. I've been learning for 18 months, but really taken it more seriously in the last 6 weeks and began studying. Here is my first poem in Spanish... Ella tiene los ojos marrones, la piel de oliva, canciones, serán susurradas cuando está cansada Para poner amor en sus sueños a diferencia del anterior dueño. Pero que piensa cuando se da cuenta al despertar de que me fui? Le perdí? Decidiría cantar también cuando se despierta... All corrections and opinions are most welcome!
