Question of the Week #14

Dear class,
This week, we will be learning how to make different kinds of poems. If you'd like to see some examples, you can go to the following websites:
These are just some examples. You can also make up your own kind of poem. Remember, poetry can be silly or serious. Poetry is not too worried about punctuation or complete sentences. Make up your own poem here on our blog by Friday, February 6th. This will be worth 2 extra credit points for your English grade.

Here's my poem. It's a haiku poem. That means it has 5 syllables in the first line, 7 syllables in the second line and then 5 syllables in the third line. I chose the topic of February.

A chill in the air
Valentine's Day is coming
The groundhog comes out

My poem is about flowers and friendship so here I go:

-FLOWER FRIENDS-

Tilups are yellow, but
Roses are red and ofcourse
Vilotes are blue
But they're all the same
It's not the way you look
Or sound it's way you act
Don''t fight or force
Be kind and honest
LOVE,
PRAY

My poem is an acrostic poem.
From the stands I hear them shout
On the field I go
Other people follow me as I go
The weather is gloomy
But I don't care
All I want to do is play football Look here, look there
Look I'm playing football!
P.S My poem is called "Football is Cool!"

Gosh, that was meant to be a diamond! When I posted my blog it changed its shape. You'll have to use your imagination to make it seem like a diamond.
