I Was Told to Write a Poem for English
I was told to write a poem for English
It’s only 20 points
This could be the one that could kill me.
I can’t write like a professional,
I don’t know what to think,
I don’t know what to rhyme,
My teacher might put my name in a flowchart.
I was told to write a poem for English
There’s so many different topics
That I could write about
But my words fail,
I stop midway,
And go back to the start.
My teacher might dart
I was told to write a poem for English
Others write about school
Or stress
Or their pet fish
Wow, this is exceptionally bad.
I don’t know, I’m confused, my thoughts are in a jumble.
My teacher might call this art.
I was told to write a poem for English
It needs to be double spaced.
I made sure it was size 12 Arial font.
Each stanza has 7 lines
Every one of the first lines are the same
That will contribute to the flow section of the rubric
My teacher might think I’m smart.
I was told to write a poem for English
I followed the rubric to my best ability
I’m starting to get distracted
I hope this will suffice.
Most of the last lines rhyme,
There’s 7 stanzas.
My teacher might draw a heart.
I was told to write a poem for English
There’s no rhyme scheme
I don’t even know if there’s figurative language
Oh wait!
I think there’s a hyperbole in the third line.
I can’t give up yet, not now.
I need these points to pass.
I was told to write a poem for English
I tried my very best
It might not rhyme
I couldn’t think of anything else that would rhyme with dart.
Let’s call it free verse
I think I did okay.
Hopefully I get an A!
