Something you might not know about me is that I love writing poetry. There are so many different types of poetry, but my favorite to write is free verse, the type that has no rhyme scheme.
First, I’d like to share a little about where I think my love of poetry came from. We always did poetry units in school. It was always pick a poem. memorize it, and recite it in class. That was okay, but I didn’t really have an interest in reciting a poem to people. I think my love of writing comes from my church youth leader. She was an English teacher and even though she taught at another school I learned so much from her. Writing has always been something that I loved and she made it fun!
Here’s some of my poems:
A Mother’s Love is a Beautiful Thing
A mother’s love is a beautiful thing.
A mother is a child’s first friend.
Love from a mother has no end.
A child’s love for a mother has no end.
A mother is a child’s first friend.
All the happy moments
in a child’s life
a mother is there.
All the bad moments
in a child’s life
a mother is there.
A mother is there through it all.
A mother’s love is a beautiful thing.
Our Heroes Then and Forever
A day to look
back
on another year.
Remembering
Our heroes.
All who were
lost on
that Septemeber
day.
Looking back
to remember
the feelings
of sadness.
Feelings of
not understanding
and confusion.
Another year
of
remembering
our brave
HEROES.
Our heroes
are the brave
men and women
who gave
their lives
for us on
that September
day.
All of them.
In New York City.
All of them.
In Washington D.C.
All of them.
In a Pennsylvania field.
Our heroes.
