I have liking for pastoral _________.

'Poetry' is an uncountable noun referring to literary works in verse form collectively. When expressing liking for a type of literature, we use the singular uncountable form. 'Poetries' is grammatically incorrect. 'Poetrieng' appears to be a misspelling, and 'poet' refers to a person who writes poetry, not the literary works themselves.
