Letter of Introduction

Hello, my name’s Kenzie Tyler. I’m fourteen years old. I live in Carbondale, Illinois. I currently attend Carbondale Community High School. I am a freshman this year and I love school. I was looking forward to continuing my school carrier here, unfortunately, I am moving this summer.

My favorite poem was my “beasts” poem. This poem is descriptive and there seems to be imagery if you close your eyes and think. When I did this I thought this was one of my best poems.

My least favorite is my “falling” poem. I feel like this poem could gave been a little more descriptive. It’s not out there and it could focus on more than one thing, I like it, but it wasn’t one of my best ones.

In this poem unit, I learned that not all poems have a specific format. Some of the poems don’t even rhyme. There are a wide variety of poems in this world, all very different and unique.

I learned that I’m not that best at writing poems. I can write good ones, but they aren’t extremely good in my mind. I also learned that I’m one person who can’t completely understand how the poems should be written. There are man different styles to choose from and it’s hard to pick just one to write from.

"A Life Well LIved" Poem #8

Honor, loved, woman,

Amazing . She was

All of these.  I loved

Her and so did many

Other people. She

Was a very well

Raised woman.

Unfortunately,

As time went

On, she did too.

Illnesses caused her

Life to be taken.

Away and gone

But the memories

Will never fade.  

Vacation#7

                                                   It was warm, perfect.

                                                             Warm sand sliding

                                                   Between my toes.

                                                            Warm water,

                                                   Splashing up on

                                                            My legs.

                                                   Perfect. Yes,

                                                           This place was.

                                                  With the boat’s

                                                           Last call, I jumped

                                                   In one last time.

Failure#6

                                                            It didn’t work, incapable.

                                                                     We tried, hard, but everytime

                                                            Was such a let down.

                                                                     Unexplainable,

                                                             Unchangeable.

                                                                    This problem wasn’t

                                                             Going to be fixed.

                                                                    Done, with trying.

Damage#5

    

                                                             Wrecked, damaged, and

                                                             Ruined. It stormed in,

                                                             Tearing everything it’s

                                                             Paws touched. Fearless,

                                                             It didn’t care who or

                                                            What it hurt. It was

                                                            Fearless. While we

                                                            Were full of fear.  

"A Love" Poem #3

                                                                We first started out in

                                                                      May. Through the troubles

                                                                And disappointments

                                                                     We still found love.

                                                                Through all of this

                                                                      I still love you, I

                                                                Know, you still

                                                                     Love me.
