I don't know the secret to having poems trend
There are some poems I feel certain that they will trend and they do not
I have read many excellent poems that did not trend, the list seems unending
I still feel that they are worthwhile ,especially when they caused a laugh or a smile or even a  tear when I really need a good cry
If the poems effect me or others I feel they are successful no matter whether they are trending or not
I feel bad for fellow poets if they get discouraged if their poems don't trend, the heart is such a fragile thing to mend, especially if discouragement sets in causing them to question their talents or ability.
My advice would be just write, if it trends great; if not keep writing don't give up
If you are writing to an Audience of one or 500 just get your feelings out you many be surprised by the results someday, you poems may really touch peoples lives that can relate to them.
Whether the poems trend or not Keep Writing!

As the World drown in their suffering, hurt, and sorrow.
Christ Spirit the Holy Spirit becomes a Life jacket for the Saved.
Keeping them above water in this world of Suffering a world of evil.
There is so much that is wrong in the world of today, so much evil.
But Christ prophize  that the world would become an evil place.
This is one of many reasons that we need to focus on Christ.
For by trusting him, he has our undivided attention and our faith.
For there is no one except him that holds the key of our salvation.
So we need to move forward trusting him with our lives completely.

I been blessed more then I will ever know , there are things from the past.
At that time I took for granite that are rare but Christ bless us with.
The factory that I worked at in Iowa was a corporation with over two hundred people working there.
Everyone on my shift cared love me unconditional , it was a Christ thing.
I learn through them how to love unconditional, he really blessed me.
I was truly blessed back then and happy except not being married.
It was the best time of my life then for there were/ are lot of good people.
That works/ worked at that office furniture company where I worked at.

You are all beautiful people because Christ does not create ugly.
You are all masterpieces of God because he does not make junk.
You are all great and wondrous group of people that God made.
He only makes good and awesome people born into this world.
For we have a choice on everything that we will do here on the earth.
A choice to do good and be a part of the Light of our Lord God.
Or to do evil and reject the Holy One of God whom lives above.
But we were still created by a Wondrous God to be beautiful.
But the more we choose to do evil and reject him whom made us.
The more that you might start to not feel beautiful in your eyes.

We whom walk by Faith, shall do wonders and hearings.
Because we trust in the Good Shepherd to see us through.
We may have our trials and sufferings but we shall overcome.
Not by our own power but by the Strength of the Lord.
For he not only given us the Helper the Holy Spirit of God.
But he also allow the Angels of the Lord to watch over us.
So be not fearful but know that Christ already holds our salvation.
For we shall not see death till the day that it was appointed to us.
For he has Angels guarding our Lives and Christ guards our Salvation.

It matters not if your poetry be Sonnet or Haiku. Nor yet if it be free style. The only thing which matters is the essence of the poem which should reflect the true heart of its writer.
