Poetry

Today we have to make up some poetry. I am going to tell you some, but it will not be in its best form because this interface does a double enter when I press the return key! so here is one of my more happy poems that I came up with:

Passing by in the window seat. See the fields and the city. The cows and the trucks. I wait for arrival. But I realize later that the drive is more interesting than the thing we are going to.

That poem was called, “Window Seat” and I came up with that because I sometimes have to go on really long drives, and I think the scenery is very beautiful. I came up with more poems,, but those, well, are way to dark to put on this blog.

I have been playing around with different fonts on Google Docs lately. Fonts are a way to make poems better and more personalized, so I’ve have been using many many many fonts do do each poem. One that I really like is called, “Indie flower”. I like it because it’s like my handwriting, and it is very pretty (not saying my handwriting is). Here is another poem:

153. Every +. Every – equals pancakes on the roof. 145. Every *. Every / equals blue apples and red cats. What can I do. Every number, every thing equals another thing. When will it end.

That poem, I don’t know what to call it. Maybe, “5 x 6 = pancake” or something. I have always wondered how and why math turns out that way. There is no “what ifs” in math, no “It doesn’t make sense,” But, my brain tells me I can do it and understand it.

Poem About Poems

The most important thing about poem is this is a poem

There are stanzas, rhyming, and anything really.

But the most important thing about a poem is this is a poem

This poem is based off “The Important Book”.  An awesome book with lots of poems.

Starting poetry

Poetry is one of my favorite things, I love to do it. Guess what? We are starting the poetry unit! Who-hoo! I am very excited and a really want to start. There is even a poetry festival! But…. we have to write about kindness. I love to write about a lot of things. Kindness is not one of them.

So…… I have no idea what I am going to do. I hate poems about joy, happiness, everyone being friends. I’m more of a darkness person. But I like funny poems too, if they are funny enough. I want to encourage people to write poems!

Go do it!
