How long did William Shakespeare write poems?

Answer 1

Nobody knows exactly. He may well have started at school; his poetry may have enabled him to seduce a woman eight years his senior. For all we know he may have been writing poetry all his life.

Answer 2

There is documented evidence to prove that on March 3rd 1593 Henry VI Part 1 was produced. However this is a play not a poem.

The narrative poems were published when the playhouses were closed due to plague and he needed an alternate revenue stream in 1593 and 1594.

Answer 3

Nobody knows for sure when Shakespeare began writing poetry, but some people think he began early in his career somewhere around 1589.

Answer 4

He wrote his poems before his death in 1616, but nobody knows when he started.

Answer 5

Most of his poems and sonnets were written between 1593 and 1609, so over a period of 16 years.

Answer 6

Nobody knows when Shakespeare wrote his first poem. His first published poetry appeared in 1593 when he was 29 years old. Presumably he had been writing for at least some time before that.

Answer 7

16 century
