My poems

Night Life

Assignment: Haiku

The the light of the night
towers that shine bright
the night light thats the life

This poem was written because I live in the city and i can relate the staying up and out late to see the city lights. I also got the inspiration to write this poem after seeing the skyline.

into The Darkness
Assignment sonnet

The moment I woke up I saw it big dark
It was a scary creature creeping through the night
No sound I could see but not move it larks
But I know it's there to scare me so it is right
Get up! I hear but then I disappear fade to nothing
I'm no longer there I'm no where gone not to b found
No longer man or beast or whatever we are I start bugging
This feels like nothing lost in a dream I feel like I've been drowned
And I don't want to b drowning or bugging I need to begin the loving
For others people and I don't know what to do for now
We have hurt a lot and done a lot but sometimes we need to be forgiving
And not everyone is ready for something's like vows
The creature is back but I am nothing he is here for nothing
He speaks to me and teaches me things no one knows and teaches me how to begin loving

I wrote this poem because lots of young girls are getting pregnant now a days and they don't ask them selfs how life would change. I wrote this from like a girls point of few and to see what they would do. I just experimented with the idea of the girl talking to her self.

Son

I wrote my sonnet the day after i had a bad dream so I wanted it to relate to my dream and be witty but teach a lesson. I also wrote it  because it seemed interesting when I came up with the idea.

Heart poem reflection

" I want to die" this is a line from The Starry Night by Anne Sexton this poem is very deep and understanding. I choose this as my heart poem because its relatable  and the literary devices, word choice and the point of the poem. They all come together to make an amazing heart poem.
The poem is about how life is hard and sometimes people need a place to get away and for Anne sexton that would be suicide. This poem explains what she wants because things are hard for her. The first time I read the poem I was very confused but after reading it a few times I realized the meaning behind the poem. Line 6 " I want to die" being repeated, gave those words strength and showed how she felt. Shes tired of going through life with hardships and other things that get in her way and bother her. This poem also shows how hard things could be because she writes about being swallowed up by a dragon which is like a symbol for all her problems and how they suck her up, hurt her and mess with her.
Another reason I connect to this poem is because the literary devices in it such as  metaphors, and repeating words . The words I want to die are used twice in this poem to give the words strength and show how much Anne Sexton cares about the way she feels. She feels shes ready to die and she wants to show the reader that by saying the words over and over again to put them in the readers head. An example of her using metaphors is in lines 14 and 15 " sucked up by that great dragon, to split from my  life with no flag." These lines made me think about life fading and how hard things could be sometimes. Anne Sexton is trying to show her readers that things are hard and sometimes you need a break and want to get away from it all. The dragon represents something scary and dangerous, so it taking her away is like the pain finally going away and leaving her.
I really can connect to this poem because I know how hard life can be sometimes not like I want to die but sometimes I need to be in a place alone just to get away from things. I think this poem expresses feelings for lots of people and it helps you to think sometimes. This poem is very strong and deep it really puts lots of things out there for people especially Anne Sexton.              

Reading Response

          Edward Cullins is intrigued by Bella, he is in love with her but he can't be with her because he is a vampire.  Twilight  by Stephanie Meyer is about a vampire who loves a human. But the tragic thing is he can't be with her, because he doesn't want to put her life at risk.
         He truly has feelings for her but he is scared to be hurt so he ends up admitting his feelings for her. He has no doubt in his mind what he wants but he knows he can't have it. "If I hadn't been denying my thirst for the last,well, too many years, I wouldnt have been able to stop myself."(260) Edward can't deny his feelings but he wants to stop himself to keep her. In a twisted way he could love but can't be loved.
        Edward must do anything and everything to control his feelings for Bella. He can see her in a different way then others he doesn't know her too well but he loves everything about her. The way she looks and even smells he loves it. "The fragrance coming off your skin.... I thought it would make me deranged that first day."(270) Edward has an urge for her but must restrain and stop to better her life so she won't be in danger.
       Edward has desire for Bella in the way like no other. He wants to feed offer her but wants to look for at the same time. He has mixed feelings towards her, but he still is protected of her so he can keep her safe. "I took precutions, hunting, feeding more than usual before seeing you again." Edward scared he might hurt her so he does more just to keep her out of harms way. He really cares for everything he does.
       Edward loves but can't be love by the girl he wants. Go to show how people would do anything for love. He did more and more every day to keep her safe and protect her. For Edward it was hard to resist what he can't have but he tries his best to keep her safe, and overcome adversity.
       

Authors note

I hope to teach kids to healthy and listen to things their parents say even if they don’t like it. I want kids to learn even sometimes the things you don’t want to do can be the most helpful like living a healthy good life. I found lots of kids don’t take the right amount of vegetables and fruits into there body. So teaching kids how to be healthy in a fun and cool way can really help them.

This is good topic for kids because so many bad things can happen to your body if you don’t eat right. Kids learning this could help them to lead a better lifestyle and teach others to be healthy. This is really good for kids to learn more and help them out. I think this is good because kids could grow a lot from this and be more mature. Finally I want kids to know things might not be the best but it can be the best for you.

This connects to me cause I know lots of people in my family and my life that are overweight and just knowing you could live a healthy life can help these kids. Kids need to know living healthy is the best and right way to go. I know people that have diabetes and other things because of the food they ate. A lot of the people I know regret it cause now they can barley eat some of the foods they loved before because they had so much it got them sick. I want kids to lead a healthy life and live good.
