Sonnets

LOVE♥  
(Petrarchan)

Whoa! I feel like your whisper across the sea
You'll always hear the music fill the air
I'll put alot of flowers in your hair
I will push you on that swing near the tree
Oh no! Don't touch it, it might be a bee!
All I want is to keep you very safe
And not letting you go inside a cave
Feel the breeze, enjoy, have fun and be free
There are so many things that we can learn
I always keep you with me in my heart
Imagine we are flying on a dove
Keep trying harder so that you can earn
I don't want us to go and fall apart
I will give you all my heart full with love.

EXPLANATION
This poem tells us about love. When you're dreaming about a person that you like and you hear him saying about love things. Instead of hearing his voice, I changed it into a whisper. So it's like, that person was hypnotized by the mellow of his voice. And love will always be together no matter what. It tells us a story that, whenever you feel uncomfortable with something, you don't have to worry about it. You can always pretend your lover is right there beside you and he'll be pushing you on that swing near the tree so that you can feel the wind in the air and imagine you guys are sitting on top of a dove and you guys are flying. So this poem is basically about love and dream. I mixed it all together so that it will be slightly different.



CELEBRITIES
(petrarchan)

As you all know, Justin Bieber is cool
Yo! Justin, your songs are driving me nuts
Please stop hating him for no reason, mutt.
He sure is mighty but he ain't cruel
But I'm sure he has alot of jewels
Oh my God, don't you guys have any guts
To say he has cool powers from his butt?
You're just afraid because you are a fool
Ugh. Okay, just do whatever you want
Hit him, punch him, kiss him, love him, hug him
Or maybe you should just pray for the world
And ask him to go to a restaurant
Or you can ask him to go to the gym
Woohoo! The world is going to be curled.

EXPLANATION
As you can see, this poems is about my favorite singer which is Justin Bieber. Everyone wants to meet him, and get a autograph from him and etc. This poem tells us that, whether he's famous or not, he will always be an awesome singer. I know he's kind of arrogant and selfish and all but let us see the bright side. The reason why I said his songs are driving me nuts is because his songs moves me and I actually get what he's trying to say through his songs. So basically, he wants to communicate to his family, his friends and also his fans by making a song so that people can understand what he's trying to tell us.  For those who hates Justin Bieber, please stop teasing him. Maybe you're just jealous that he has a good voice or even maybe you haven't got the guts to admit that on the inside you really love Justin Bieber, but on the outside, you're just pretending to hate Justin Bieber. The reason why I said "Hit him, punch him, kiss him, love him, hug him" was because I'm tired of people always keeps on teasing him for no reason. Remember, he's trying to speak to his fans through his songs. 

WISHES AND FEARS
(Shakespearean)

Yes, I am afraid of heights and the dark
Why do you even care? It's just my fears
You're the smart one. Why don't you feed the shark?
Dude, stop whining. Give him a glass of beer
Hell yes, I want to be rich and famous
I even want to have my own island
I don't want to be an ignoramus
My island needs to be next to Thailand
So that I can be free from anything
I'm afraid of death. I don't want to die
Damn, I just need to get rid of something!
I just can't sit there or stand there and lie
Hey, come on man. It is just too painful
I have to stop this. It's just too painful!
EXPLANATION
I am afraid of heights and the dark. Well, actually I'm afraid of everything. I wrote "Why do you even care? It's just my fears. You're the smart one. Why don't you feed the shark?" is because I was so pissed. This poem is about my wishes and my fears. I want to be rich and famous and have my own island. I don't want to be an ignoramus and you just sit there and do nothing. Ignoramus means stupid person. So I don't want to be a stupid person when I grow up. It tells us that whenever you want to conquer your fears, you just can't because it's like the fears are already inside your head and you can't get them out because it's already stuck. It's just too painful.



ME☂
(Shakespearean)

Dude, all I want is to make someone laugh
People can't make me laugh because their lame
I just wish I could cut myself in half
Or maybe, should I do the walk of shame?
Nah. I'd rather be alone and have fun
Oh! I need to make a daily schedule
So that I can get all of my things done!
Ah! I'm stressed out. I need to reschedule
I'm just a normal person like you guys
I don't care whether you like me or not 
I don't like people that is full with lies
I will be on that spot and draw a dot
Hey, I am a freak. I was born this way
Stop yelling, stop fighting. Just go away.

EXPLANATION
This poem tells about myself. Everyone knows that I can't manage my time well and I DO need a daily schedule so that I can manage my time well and give all the homeworks and assignments on time. "Ah! I'm stressed out. I need to reschedule" it means that, I don't think I can make a daily schedule because every weekdays and weekends I'm very busy. Except for Sunday. I am a normal person like you guys, I don't really care if you like to judge me. I'm happy that I was born this way.

Freestyle Poems

Eye-L-Why? (ILY)         
(rhyming)

I feel like I'm being ignored by you
And I think you've changed alot from my view
If I could rearrange the alphabet, I'd put U and I together
You and I will never last forever
But now, I am alone
Why won't you answer my phone?
I've been calling you for ages
You should've answer my call. But you didn't, you're just outrageous!
I thought friends will always stay through thick and thin
But I guess you put our memories into the trash bin
I want to smack your head with a bottle
But I just can't because you're now in Seattle
I don't care if you're gay
But I just want to tell the whole world and say,
I love you and you are the best thing that's ever been mine.

Smile! 
(non-rhyming)

Wake up in the morning feeling like P.Diddy
Wait. NO!
Instead of crying, turn that frown upside down
Smile as wide as you can
Don't be afraid to smile, because smile is the best medicine
Smile, laugh, dance, sing!
Do whatever you want
But don't ever do the fake smile. It scares me, alot
It feels like someone just got into a fight with a huge bear
If you're sad, go to your room, lock the door, listen to some of your favorite song
If the song reminds you about your sad experiences during the past,
Don't worry, be happy.
Come on, give me a break will you?
Does anyone realize all the ridiculous things that you've done?
No? Well, okay.

I chose the first poem which is "Eye-L-Why". It's basically about love. I chose this because I want to tell my love story to everyone but I made it into a poem so that it's more easier to understand, it's not too complicated and it can attract people and they can understand my feelings as well. At first, I wasn't sure if I will write about this or not because I couldn't handle it. I find it hard to let it out. But now I realize that it's okay to spit it out and tell the truth and share your feelings to other people. This poems tells us that people doesn't like to be ignored by another person. It feels like you did something wrong to them but actually you didn't. It's just your feelings. We all know that when a person likes someone, we don't just go straight to that person and confess to him/her and say "I love you". It is just too fast. We need sometime to think and it has to be a process. When you can't handle love anymore, like for example that person don't love you back, it feels like you want to break or throw something that is valuable. And you feel like you want to cry just because you're heartbroken. But then afterwards, whenever you're done crying, it feels alot better. And you continue to love that person again no matter what.

Acrostic Poems


Why should we fight
Against another country?
Respect one and another.










Verena is always listening in
Every subjects at school but she likes to
Roam around with her friends and always
Eats in class whenever the teacher is not looking.
Never do bad stuff to the teacher.
And she always pays attention in class.








Some people say that
Teachers are
Unique in some ways and they
Do things positively.
You all must know that studying
Is very boring and stressful at the same time. But you must
Never ever
Give up on your studies.




A
liens are
Little creatures
It
Eats when they are
Nervous. Let's
Start eating!





Hockey is a good exercise
Ouch! I got hit.
Come and play! It's
Kind of hard but you'll get use to it. It is so
Exciting and nervous at the same time.
Yay! We won!

I chose my 3rd poem which is "Studying". The reason why I chose that poem is because it is my best poem that I have written so far. Teachers do things positively. Well, by doing things positively, i mean, doing good things like, making sure if the students are disciplined, prepare activities, revision papers and exam papers and give it out to the students so that they can be well prepared and they are ready for their exam. Teachers always attend school meetings, give advice to the students and etc. We all know that students easily gets tired whenever they are studying. It gets boring and boring. But if we are not studying, how are we suppose to learn new things? Where can we get information from? Even though studying is very boring for kids like us, we should never give up on our studies.

Haiku





Mistakes are needed
Like gold tested within fire
From wrong make things right.






Black, brown, white, yellow
We share the world as one blood
Why not make it right?


Orang colored hues
Lovers watching sun rising
Future is at ease.








The sky so gloomy
Rain falls like tears from heaven
So as my feelings.



Money is evil
But money brings happiness
Man makes it evil.







Sleeping is peaceful
It feels like I'm in heaven
Welcome to dream land.





Mistakes are needed
Like gold tested within fire
From wrong make things right.


This theme is about "Learning". We all know that no one is perfect and everyone makes alot of mistakes.   It's okay to make mistakes. When we make mistakes, we should reflect and ask ourselves "What did I do?" or "I did something wrong. How can I make it right?". About the 2nd line, which is "Like gold tested within fire", it tells us that gold needs to be put in fire to make it shinier. It means that, men and women needs to commit mistakes to make them a better person.
