Whoa, long time no see! I'm a 7th grader now (whaaaatt?!) time goes by really fast doesn't it? Poetry is kinda the new buzz in my classes, we are talking about it in english ( and listening to Hamilton! aka an awesome musical ) we are also focusing on poetry in G.T. as well. Poetry to me is a way to creatively express yourself, you can write about your own personal experiences, historical events, your dreams, basically anything can be written in poetry! Poetry is written in verses not paragraphs, and poetry has more of a free-flow. To me poetry is like a short novel. Basically writing motions, activities, events, and emotions into a rhythmic lines. Poetry is like a second language to me. Poetry is awesome because you can relate to it, write about different points of views, and fit many feeling into 4 small verses.
Everybody has goals, even if your not 100% sure about what they might be, you probably have an idea of something that you want to learn or do. Here's my poetic statement.
Basically it's about some of my goals in life and what I want to achieve.
For me it is pretty hard to write poetry with rhyme, if you're lucky there will be a word that fits with exactly what you want to say. Sometimes if I try to rhyme I lose the point of the poem. Or the idea kinda switches around. In my 2, 3, 4, and 5 line of poetry I used the A, B method of rhyming. The A rhymes are smile and awhile, and the B rhymes are Oscars and offer. While writing poetry using rhyme makes it flow more and easy to say. Rhythm in poetry is a key thing to have, it keeps the poem moving and just like rhyme, makes your writing easier to read. I didn't really used a lot of rhythm in my poem, but I did start some lines with the same word to try maintain a beat.
On the bottom is my text layer, sketch layer, then my finished product, enjoy! :P
Learn to work through the hard things in life.
During you strong and weak moments, smile.
Learn to understand others even if it takes awhile.
To win a couple Oscars,
To travel the world and explore what everywhere has to offer,
and to live a life of joy and excitement.
Basically it's about some of my goals in life and what I want to achieve.
