The Final Frontier (Shining Sally)

I love poetry because it's a creative way to express yourself. Whithout poetry, we wouldn't have song lyrics. I write poetry all the time, and my themes range frm love to camping. I don't really stick to one topic when it comes to poetry. I also write all types of poetry. The majority of my poems are either free-form or have a rhyming pattern.

Itinerary List (Snorkling With Words)

"Devotion" by Robert Frost
Devotion- a dedication
Ex.) You could see pure devotion in the man's gaze.

"The Silken Tent" by Robert Frost
Relent- to become more calm
Ex.) After much crying, the child seemed to relent.

"To Earthward" by Robert Frost
Weariness- to be exhausted
Ex.) The man passed-out from weariness.

"What Do You Do When She Looks At You?" by Unknown
Bellow- to make a low, deep noise
Ex.) The cow bellowed to her calf to come along.

Tuggin' The Luggin' (A Sweater for all Types of Weather)

End Rhyme is when a poem has a word at the end of one line that rhymes with a word at the end of a different line. In the song, "Time" by Pink Floyd, the lines, " Ticking away the moments that make up the dull day/You fritter and waste the hours in an offhand way," are examples of end rhyme because "day" and "way" rhyme. In the poem, "The Silken Tent" by Robert Frost, the lines, "She as in a field of silken tent/Has dried the dew and all its ropes relent" the words "tent" and "relent" rhyme at the end of each line. In the poem, "Devotion" by Robert Frost, the lines, "The heart can think of no devotion/Greater than being shore to ocean" have end rhyme n them. The words "devotion" and "ocean" rhyme.
My Poem:

Springtime

.

I see a robin

playing in the leaves,

I see a chipmonk

in the trees.

.

I see the sun

way up high,

I see the clouds

rolling by.

.

I see a flower

on the ground,

I see Springtime

all around.

Vacation Destination (Musical Mexico)

"It's Gonna Be Me"

by 'N SYNC

.

It's gonna--be--me

Oh, yeah

.

You might've been hurt, babe

That ain't no lie

You've seen them all come and go, oh...

I remember you told me

That it made you believe in

No man, no cry

Maybe that's why

.

Every little thing I do

Never seems enough for you

You don't wanna lose it again

But I'm not like them

Baby, when you finally,

Get to love somebody

Guess what,

It's gonna be me...

.

You've got no choice, babe

I've got to move on, and you know

There ain't no time to waste

You're just too blind (too blind), too see

But in the end, ya know it's gonna be me

You can't deny

So just tell me why

.

Every little thing I do

Never seems enough for you

You don't wanna lose it again

But I'm not like them

Baby, when you finally

Get to love somebody (somebody)

Guess what (guess what)

It's gonna be me

.

It's gonna be me

Oh yeahhhhh...

.

There comes a day

When I'll be the one, you'll see...

It's gonna-gonna-gonna-gonna-gonna

.

It's gonna be me

.

All that I do

Is not enough for you

Don't wanna lose it

But I'm not like that

When finally (finally)

You get to love

Guess what (guess what)

.

Every little thing I do

Never seems enough for you (for you babe)

You don't wanna lose it again (don't wanna lose it)

But I'm not like them

Baby, when you finally

Get to love somebody (love...)

Guess what (guess what)

It's gonna be me

.

Every little thing I do (ohh...)

Never seems enough for you

You don't wanna lose it again (don't wanna lose it)

But I'm not like them

Baby, when you finally (baby when you finally)

Get to love somebody

Guess what (guess what)

.

It's gonna be me.

Yellow Words: Metaphor

Pink Words: Hyperbole

Description:

'N SYNC uses poetry and the different poetic devices in the song. They show end rhyme in the lines, "Get to love somebody/It's gonna be me."'N SYNC also shows repetition in the song. The line, "It's gonna be me" is repeated many times during the song. They also use alliteration in their song. It's used in the line, "It's gonna-gonna-gonna-gonna-gonna." 'N SYNC uses metaphors in their song. The line, "You're just too blind, to see" is a form of this. "Every little thing I do/Never seems enough for you" is a form of hyperbole because she can't be satisfied with nothing. I think there should be more poetic divices, such as sensory detail or similies. It would make the song more interesting.

.

Song Analysis:

I think this song is talking about a man who is persueing a woman, but she's not interested in him. The man is determined to get this girl to love him. He knows she's been hurt, but he's claiming that he's not like those men; he'd never hurt her.

My Poem:

My Heart

.

Killing time

I look around,

Hoping that

my Love is found.

.

I wear my heart

right on my sleeve

for you to take,

for you to leave.

.

It's not for everyone,

only you.

My love is special,

this is true.

.

Break my heart,

I'll break your face,

I'll kick that nose

right out of place.

.

Don't get me wrong,

my love is true

but breaking hearts

is what you do.

.

I wear my heart

right on my sleeve,

for you to take

for you to leave.
