Solar System
Dancing, Dancing round’ the
sun, the planets go around. Frolicking across the sun the planets have some
fun.
Every time they dance around
they have a good mood.
Then came the birth of the
Earth
It was not so delightful.
In fact it was spiteful and
Frightful.
Earth decided to outcast
Pluto goes away as a blast.
Then Pluto had to stay…
Alone…
Frightened…
Upset…
Poor…
Worthless…
Never to remembered in the
darkness…
It is no laughing matter that
Pluto is alone. Since any time, anywhere, Pluto can be YOU.
Poetry Journal #1
My poem as a whole is a
metaphor. I compared people to planets. I also describe how the planets
orbiting around the sun is like an endless party filled with fun. Earth is
shown to be the bully and Pluto as the victim. This poem is supposed to show
the average bullying situation and how it is getting out of hand. In the part
where I stated that “Pluto had to stay… Alone… Frightened… Upset… Worthless…” I
used key words to express emotion inside my poem, I used mostly negative
feelings to show how a victim feels during bullying and to give the reader a
vision, a dark one, filled with sadness and weeping. Another sentence stated in
the text is “ It is no laughing matter that Pluto is alone. Since any time,
anywhere, Pluto can be YOU.” This sentence is written to give a connection to
the reader and give them a vision, a moral. Another sentence used in the poem
was “Then came the birth of Earth It was not so delightful. In fact it was
spiteful and Frightful.” This sentence too shows emotions and helps the reader
visualize a picture in their mind. Another sentence used in the poem is “
Dancing, Dancing round’ the sun, the planets go around. Frolicking across the
sun the planets have some fun. Every time they dance around they have a good
mood.” This sentence was used to give the reader a picture of something smooth,
fun, and joyful. Mostly the key words dancing, good, fun, and frolicking. The poem uses unique words like spiteful,
delightful, frolicking, outcast blast, etc. What makes these words used in the
poem unique is that not a lot of poet writers use words like those. To make a unique poem use things people
didn’t use before, be original, and take your time. This is exactly what I did
and that is what every poet does. Remember, to make a poem, you have to trust
your heart and practice
My Family
My Family
My family is the heart in me
It keeps me smiling through
the day
Kindness, passion, and
affection.
When I’m down in the dump
Sitting and feeling the great
grump
My family is always there to
say, “Let me comfort you”
I love my family equally, no
one better or the worst
When I’m up on the great,
great skies I always remember to look down.
I am not the only one after
all and there to say the magical words too.
“Let me help, let me support
you.”
Even though I get in trouble
An experience is earned
Something is learned
I know and they know
What is best for us all.
No matter what something is
we do together everything,
We share our pain
We share our love
We share our experience
And we savor it together.
Poetry Journal #2
I wrote this poem to show my
gratitude to my family and to show my love. My family is always there for me no
matter what and always shows endless support. This is shown when I say “When
I’m down in the dump Sitting and feeling the great grump My family is always there to
say, “Let me comfort you”. This shows that my family cares about me and gives
the support to me. As I say in the poem I love my family greatly and they are
what I wished for. I wouldn’t know what to do without them. My family is what
makes me have life and be who I am. This is shown when I say “My family is the
heart in me It keeps me smiling through the day”. I also believe that I have to support my
family when they feel down and are having a bad day. I feel like I should contribute
to the family and should help. This is shown when I write “When I’m on the
great skies I always remember to look down. I am not the only one after all and
there to say the magical words too. “Let me help, let me support you.” I also
love experiencing things with my family and love to cooperate with them. I like
spending every single moment with them as possible. This is shown when I write
the following “No matter what something is we do together everything We share
our pain We share our love We share our experience.”. I also do not mind being
in trouble because after all my family knows best for me and teaches me. This
is shown when I say “ Even though I get in trouble An experience is learned I
know and they know What is best for us all.” My family is I and it is worth
everything for me!
Dreams, Nightmares, and Night
The sky shines across the
horizon
Silver stars fill the sky
Curtains closed, Lights off
Covers up, time to sleep!
Soft pillows and warm
blankets
Oh the joy!
Yawns come often and eyes
stop blinking.
You start to sleep.
Clouds of fluff and candy
trees, flying cats
Oh the joy!
Flying through the skies like
a hero saving citizens from all around.
Jumping through the rooftops
as the sun goes down.
Then the clouds disappear,
houses start to burn.
Laughter starts, you feel
like yelling as something is behind!
What can it be?
Oh look there it is!
A zombie, a ghost, a puppet
dancing and laughing as you feel a burn
Fire around you what to do?
You yell as you look around.
This place looks familiar…
My Home
Poem Journal #3
This poem expresses what I
see and what is common during sleeping. We call it dreams and nightmares. We
all have them, at least once in a lifetime. This story changes tone every
couple of stanzas. Mainly split into three main areas. The Realistic area, the
dream area, and the nightmare area. This poem is based on one of the first
times I ever got a nightmare. I use certain vocabulary to express my feelings
and to paint a picture in the reader’s head. I give a sleepy tone when I write
the following “Soft pillows and warm blankets Oh the joy! Yawns come often and
eyes stop blinking. You start to sleep.” Another tone of the story is the tone
of happiness and excitement, mainly from the dream sequence. This is shown in
the poem when I say “ Clouds of fluff and candy trees, flying cats Oh the joy!”
This specific sentence has emotion put into it, it helps the reader imagine.
The final sequence is nightmare sequence. It is supposed to give the reader
chills, make them see what I saw, the screams of terror, and the ghost in their
face laughing as fire approaches. I fill the words filled with emotion like
joy, fluff, candy, fire, laughing, burn, dancing, and more. A couple of
sentences that show this are “Clouds disappear, houses start to burn. Laughter
starts, you feel like yelling as something is behind!” In the end after all the
phases I come back to the real world where everything is calm and I let the reader
relax. This poem is used to let the reader experience what I did when I first
got the dream/nightmare.
Feeling Stressed Haiku
The Weight Start
Piling
The Weight Upon My
Shoulder
It Is Growing Now
Poetry Journal #4
At the start of the poem when
I say “The Weight Starts Piling” it shows how either I save work for later or I
get distracted. Usually the first stage of stress. This sentence shows that
work starts getting bigger, I start to get nervous, and in other words, the
weight on my theoretical shoulders starts getting heavier. The next line “The
weight upon my shoulder” means that I still grasp it but not very hard. This
shows the second stage stress. Usually school causes the symptom of stress.
This whole haiku is a metaphor comparing a person’s shoulders with the amount
of work a person has. The haiku uses words such as growing, upon, weight, and piling
to express the amount of work. It is also used to let the reader visualize what
is going on. From the amount of work, to the metaphor, the haiku is used to
give the reader an understanding of stress in a nutshell while also giving it
in only 17 syllables. The final sentence “It is Growing Now” is used to express
the amount of work increasing. This poem was made due to me, as always either
being too distracted or too calm. In my life I always slack off. I try to do at
the final second. This is not good but it is a habit. By writing this haiku I
show the reader how it feels to be me everyday. I also include this because I
want to give readers a moral of not keeping work until the end. The point of my
poems is to learn from my mistakes and to not give up, no matter the situation.
It is always interesting to see how someone else sees the world so when someone
in this case is me writes a poem it is fun to see how they view the world and
this haiku perfectly describes my everyday life. This haiku is what my life is,
me holding the weight of what I do and don’t do. But most importantly is that I
try.
Where My Poems Come From
My poems come from a place
called my mind
Where anything is a
possibility.
Never knowing what comes out
on the paper next
It can come from anywhere.
A desk, a table, or maybe my
mouth.
Who knows maybe a rainbow?
I love my poems as a family
Poems let me be me, no
change, no fake, just heart
No need for a second take.
My poems come from friends or
family maybe even pets
Treasure them I will, With
great memories they hold
Within them is my heart,
My living soul…
“Wow look a poem is just
right here!”
Poetry Journal #5
I
wrote this poem with a purpose, to show where my poem ideas come from and how
they become what you see right now. It is a great question that many can get
stuck on. To solve this you have to look at yourself and think deeply, look at
the work you did and observe. In one sentence I write “My poems come from a
place called my mind Where anything is a possibility.” This shows that a poem
cannot be overthought and there should never be a limit, the only limit you
should have is your heart. This sentence also shows that anything is possible
as long as you believe. I also included that even friends, family, or pets can
come up with a good poem. They can say or do something funny, as long as you
observe enough. Think about it, there are poem ideas all around you. One part
where I wrote “With great memories they hold Within them is my heart, my living
soul…” I wrote this because it shows the dedication I have to my poems and how
much they mean to me. The final sentence in my poem is “”Wow look a poem is
just right here!”” This quote was added because just like I said before, you
have to think deeply about something, but still trust your heart. I made a poem
about me telling how to make a poem and where the come from! Another sentence
used in the poem was “Poems let me be me, no change, no fake, just heart, No
need for a second take.” This part of the poem shows freedom of writing and
thought. Poems let you be you, and let you express your feelings. This is what
makes poems great. Another sentence in the poem was “It can come from anywhere.
A desk, a table, or maybe a mouth.” This part of the poem shows that a poem can
come from even the simplest of things you might have missed. Also another part
of the poem that was important was when I said “Who knows maybe a rainbow?”
This part of the poem shows that poems cannot only come from experience but
also imagination.
Time
Time
is a limit
It
is always ticking.
Do
what you want
But
try your best
Mark
your history
Don’t
waste your time
Make
the most of it.
Construct
something
Destroy
that something
Run
and don’t stop.
Make
most of time
Don’t
waste it on sitting
Go
out and play
So
do it because remember you only have one LIFE.
Poetry Journal #6
This
poem is about time because it is something I always think off. Its always the
same but also different. It seems as that when you are having fun it goes past
in seconds but while you have nothing done it slows down, but it actually
doesn’t. You should go waste time on something worthwhile like I said in the
poem. A sentence in the poem is “Mark your history Don’t waste your time Make
the most of it.” This quote shows that you should do something with your life,
something great. Since time is always
ticking you have to do something, not just something, but something you enjoy.
The final sentence in the poem “So do it because remember you only have one LIFE.” reminds you that life is not
endless and you should waste it on something you would remember as fun,
enjoyable instead of sitting at you house all day doing absolutely nothing. The
sentence “Go out and play” refers to you making friends and enjoying yourself
which is what you should with your time, have fun, get friends, etc. Another
sentence in the test is “Time is a limit It is always ticking.” Refers to the
fact that time goes in only one direction. It also points to the fact that time
does end and you should not think of it, instead you should have fun and be
yourself, just remember to try you best to do something fun. Because after all,
having fun is greater and brings better memories then the boring hours of you
staying at home do. But in the long run, it depends on the person. Do what you
want. Another huge reason I wrote this poem is to remind people that they have
to spend more time with their loved ones and should pay more attention to their
families and pets. The line “Construct something Destroy something” means that
you should spend your time, don’t get upset over the negatives, but get happy
on the positives. This means that you should not get caught up in the past and
you should keep trying. Another sentence in the poem is “Run and don’t stop.”
This means that you should literally do something with your life, but mainly
don’t give up, keep trying never stop.
