I enjoy writing poetry.. at times.. so, I made a thread to display my poetry. 8D

Free-Verse
School
To some, school is
a building of torture, where kids are forced to think hard and hurt their brains
an asylum for smart and not-so-smart kids whose parents are crazy
a last-place ribbon hanging on the wall reminding you how awful you are at running

To others, school is
a building for blooming geniuses, budding artists, a place to express talent
the highlight of their day because they got 100% on a test
a first-place trophy sitting on the shelf, shining with glee

Yet others may think school is
a place to relax and let your brain go free
not bad, not good, but somewhere in between
an honorable mention reminding you that you still did something.

Opportunity
I see a golden opportunity.
I wait.
The opportunity stares back at me.

I see a great opportunity.
I wait.
The opportunity sees me too.

I see a good opportunity.
I wait.
The opportunity just looks at me.

I see an opportunity.
I reach for it.
It jumps away.
It is gone.
I waited too long.


Rhyming Poems
Complainin'
This chicken is much too chewy
This beef is much too tough
This Jell-O is much too gooey
The floor is much too rough

This dining hall is much too loud
And my computer’s slow
I cannot see a single cloud
And of course there’s never snow.

The TV isn’t working
I’m banned from video games
Homework I could be shirking
I can’t even get near flames.

I’m hungry, I’m bored
I’m tired, I’m sad
I’m loud, uncured
I’m thirsty, I’m mad.

I don’t really like to yell,
I’d rather just complain,
I don’t want to rebel,
I often get migraines

Complain, complain, complain
That’s all I like to do
Come to my domain
And I’ll complain to you.

im guessing your doing poems in school? I did the same tipe of poem as "pencil and pen" last year.

I really liked your complainin' poem :)

"opportunity" was abit weird but its true at times.

Coincidentally, we are starting our Poetry unit in Language Arts tomorrow, however these are poems from last year.

And thanks 8D
 
eek thanx for quoting my post i just found out i spelled type wrong :p My poetry unit was around this time last year.

I forgot to mention the poem "school", I'd probabli be 80% of the 2nd verse and 10 % of the others.
