I am poem: the best of me..

I wrote this poem using imagery describing the things I saw or did. For example when I talked about the sunsets and using the word cry. When using these words the readers will get a picture in their head to imagine the scene. This poem was used to describe the shoes in my life and telling a story from my point of views. It explains my highs and my lows.

I am a cheerleader

I wonder why there is so much hate in this world

I hear everyone talking around me

I see the wonderful San Diego sunsets

I want a burrito

I am a gymnast

I pretend to listen to people talk

I feel happy during the summer

I worry about my mom and sister

I cry when I am mad

I worry about my mom and sister

I cry when I am mad

I am excited for spring break

I understand what is going on in math right now

I say ‘bro’ a lot

I dream about my career

I try to be nice to others

I hope to become successful

Annika

Funny, caring, sarcastic, savage

Sister of Annaliese

Lover of cheer, burritos, and sunsets

Who feels happy, loved, and appreciated

Who needs a shopping spree, a burrito, and a longer spring break

Who gives unconditional support, laughter, and jokes

Who fears car crashes, heights, and the word “no”

Who would like to see my lost loved ones, sunset, and netflix

In this poem I described myself, what I feel, fear, love, etc. I used imagery in this poem as well. I described the sunsets and the image of laughter. This poem helped give the readers, who don't know me, information about me. I chose the maroon background because it went well with the picture i chose of me.

Bio Poem response:

In my re-creation poem i used similes and hyperbole. With the comparison of how our skin felt like fire. As well as the over exaggerated line of "cars flying past us". I wrote this poem the way I did because the words I chose from the original poem screamed out summer time to me so i decided to write about how good summer time is. We used 10 of the words from the original poem and the rest we chose. The words I chose all had to do with summer time.

Re- Creation Poem:

Summer time is the best time

The sun burning our skin like fire

Bright skies burning our eyes

Smiling people everywhere you look

Summer time is the best time, life is good

Walking to the drugstore for candy

Cars are flying past us

People are walking their dogs

Who doesn't love summer

Our favorite chocolate ice cream

Bright yellow flowers to brighten these days

What a great time to be alive...

At 7:30 in the afternoon

Sun is gone lights are on

At 7:30 in the afternoon

We are warming up stunts and practicing cheers

At 7:30 in the afternoon

The boys are tackling the other school

At 7:30 in the afternoon

Everyone is as happy as a kid in a candy shop

At 7:30 in the afternoon

Us cheerleaders are cheering loud

At 7:30 in the afternoon

But the crowd is cheering louder

At 7:30 in the afternoon

Stylistics Poem:

Cheer.. At 7:30 in the afternoon.

It's the best time of the year

At 7:30 in the afternoon

For a short time my life revolves around cheer

At 7:30 in the afternoon

They´re at the first and goal

At 7:30 in the afternoon

Touchdown

At 7:30 in the afternoon

The crowd goes wild

At 7:30 in the afternoon

Fall is the best time of the year

At 7:30 in the afternoon

Especially when your life revolves around cheer

At 7:30 in the afternoon

Description for Stylistics Poem:

I wrote the stylistics poem with a few different types of figurative language. The three I used were: similes, hyperbole, and imagery. The setting of my poem is at a football game on the sideline. I used these to describe the feeling of how it is cheering at a varsity football game in front of your school. Its such a fun an experience that I tried to put into words.

Description for Definition Poem:

In this poem I described what the word frighten means to me. Things such as car accidents and crazy hair. The figurative language i used to describe these things were imagery, end rhyme, and onomatopoeia. Using those forms of language helped me give the full affect of what I feared in life. The way I said "sounds of a car crash" if a person has ever heard one they will get an image of the scene in their head.

definition

poem

Frighten: [f-rite-en], verb, plural frightens.,

Make (someone) afraid or anxious

When a scary face pops out in a movie

My hair when I wake up in the morning

Teenagers thoughts throughout the day

Sounds of a car crash as we drive down the freeway

Although clowns are just as scary I give them leeway

When a mother says her kids full name

Seeing a spider crawl down the wall

Hearing my alarm go off in my ear every morning

All the things that frighten a teen

Limerick Poem:

A Girls Love for Food

A burrito will always sound good

If I could always get one I would

The hot sauce is spicy

I hope my drink is icy

I got a burrito and left it on my hood

For my Limerick Poem we had to use a specific format to create this poem. We had to make the last word in line 1,2,5 rhyme. Then we had to make the last word in line 3 and 4 rhyme. I used end rhyme in this poem to describe my love for burritos. For those who don't know i get a burrito about 2-3 times a week, they're my favorite food.
