FINAL DRAFT:
Metaphor Poem
Music is power that makes you to move
It’s the invisible drive that never ceases to exist
The voices are the people that calm your mind
The repeating rhythm is the beat of your heart.
Limerick
There once was a pug named Frank
He loved to walk around the bank
With a running start he flew like a dark
And into my arms he sank
Haiku
I read from the book
The pages turned in my hand
I soon was finished
Tanka
Glory is fading
The sun may never rise up
Clouds form into storms
The air is piercing the trees
How will they find a safe place

Limerick
Frank the Pug
There once was a pug named Frank
He loved to walk down to the bank
With a quick running start
He flew like a dart
And into my arms he sank
Bio Poem
Erin
Tall, hard worker, creative
Daugher of Steve and Colleen
Who loves art, animals, and love
Who has felt loved, hatred, and confusion
Who fears the doctor, the tiger in the closet, and getting a C
Who has made a hundred percent on an english A.P. test
Who wants to see the hungry fed

Haiku
Always near my hand
Full of love and happiness
Diet Coke is god
Tanka
Glory is fading
The sun may never rise up
Clouds form into storms
The air is piercing the threes
How will they find a safe place
I really like the Tanka and The Haiku. They were simple and yet they were full of detail. My only suggestion would be to maybe add a couple more accomplishments and things that you want to see happen in the biopoem, but very good job.
i like these poems, especially the tonka, the haiku is short and too the point, it’d be cool to try and make it longer into another tonka, other than that nice work!
I really liked your limerick story, it had a good mood and fun rhythm. What i really enjoyed about your poems is the difference in tones. How the first is happy and funny and then they get more serious. Good writing.
I thought all your poems were well written. I really liked your tanka. I thought that your haiku was a little weird and I really didn’t get your main topic.
