This piece should be geared for children. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Writing a Poem I once wrote a poem about lions, But I had trouble with the rhymes. So I changed all the lions to cats And made my poetry full of hats "Writing poems isn't hard," I smiled But then my teacher said to me That poems were really similies: My cat is like a gopher Because he hides and purrs. "That's a lot of work," I said. I sighed, hunted deep inside my head, Considered all the books I’d read, Then started writing what I felt The day I earned my karate belt. That's how I wrote my second poem. Now I think poetry is lots of fun -- Whether serious or a silly pun. I've learned poems can be anything If they make you laugh, sing, Cry, look, stop, or even just think. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
