Poem 9: Pantoum

I laugh, I hate, I love, I cry
I dance when no one's watching.
I played with dolls, dressed up, and made mud pies
And say things without thinking

I dance when on one's watching
I feel jealous too
And say things without thinking
I'm just a regular girl like you.

I feel jealous too
I think of boys as well
I'm just a regular girl like you
And my best friends only time will tell

I think of boys as well
I played with dolls dressed up and made mud pies
And my best friends, only time will tell,
I laugh, I hate, I love, I cry.

Poem 6: Model Poem

All that is gold does not glitter,
Not all those who wander are lost;
The old that is strong does not wither,
Deep roots are not reached by the frost.

From the ashes a fire shall be woken,
A light from the shadows shall spring;
Renewed shall be blade that was broken,
The crownless again shall be king.


John Ronald Reuel Tolkien

All bad things come to a end,
Not everything lasts forever;
The wounds shall heal, and hearts will mend,
Deep thoughts will eventually come together.

From a distance it may seem a lifetime
A road too long to take;
Renewed steps taken one at a time.
The bad will soon fade away.

Poem 4: Shakespearean Sonnet

He's there to guide her; he's there to care,
But she's growing up too fast for him.
Not much longer has he wisdom to share
With all the years flying right past him.
She looks up to him, and hopes to make proud.
And only in his arms she feels safest.
He's strict and tough, but her head's in the clouds
All he wants is her future be brightest.
But soon she'll grow up, and go her own way.
She will have a job and a family.
Yet all he taught her, stays 'till that day.
An honest and caring mother to be.
From miles away, or houses apart,
She'll always be his little girl at heart.
