Beginning of Writing Philosophy

A) Types of writing that you do
B) How you approach/ start that writing?
How do templates affect/ impact that process?

There are many types of writing, and the one I like is poetry. Of course, I know I can not really create a poem with those fancy words in my level of English. But I can try my best to express myslef and what i am trying to describe. To start from the beginning of the poem, i would set up the background first and then start to describe the object or event. For example, to describe the weather or the environment around me, just like a introduction to a body paragraph on an eassy. And then i would put some words that can describe my emotion and what happened in the poem. To close up the poem, I can put some thing that I wish or hope to happen instead of what really happened at end. So these are the steps I use to write my poems at most of the time. And these did help me sometime when I am stuck. To tell the truth, most of the I created were actually written in Mandarin. And it only becuase i do get more ideas when i write in my language.
