I've always been big into poetry, but my passion sort of fell by the wayside in Jr. High. Till recent, that is, when My English teacher forced us to write up stanzas on the spot. While I strongly am against throwing out one's emotions and insights to the general public (and this I'm posting on my blog... haha), it did re-awaken the joy I have in poetry. These are just a couple splurges I did in class or as a late night night assignment. I'm no Frost, but I hope you find them enjoyable or ast least mildly pleasant.
Cumulonimbus
Summer Trees blow in breeze
Make her think of High Seas
Unfurl sails, catch the gale
Over cloud and under sun
Lives a boy having too much fun
O Boy
O Boy, you found me out your gate
Kind Boy, you almost came too late
Glad Boy, your grace grants all I want
Sweet Boy, who repay I could not
O Boy, soon my goodbyes by said
O Girl, I spied you outside my Wall
Sad Girl, my love could cure you all
Lost Girl, would you leave me behind?
Dear Girl, in you I would confide:
My Girl, I don't want to be paid
And there are others but I don't have them with me, so there will have to be a second installment.
I wrote some haikus
ReplyDeleteThey were really depressing
I locked them away
Then to my surprise
The haikus were on my desk!
I'd thrown the good ones.
I don't think I'll post
What should never be said loud
It's what I had wrote.

You can sure right those stanzas
Good job with the words.
Wow! How long did it take you to write that? It's good.
