assignment : Compose a poem from Charlotte dedicated
                   to her English teacher.  


She was my Favorite Teacher

Dear Miss Hancock

The news of your death has put me in shock

At the end of last class I didn't want to talk

But now it's all I can ask for

At this new school I wanted to appear cool to the core

That's why I said I had to go and went straight for the door

The truth is every night I still write metaphors

I am writing this letter to apologize

For the way I acted before you went up in the skies

I hope you are enjoying your release

Miss Hancock rest in peace

Rock's last Goodbye


Rock's Last Goodbye


Instructions: Write a poetic response about the "sound of the Hollyhocks."

A bit longer than a month ago Rock had some strange powers

He was hallucinating, he could even talk to flowers

 Now the doctor at the clinic said was ready to leave soon

One day his parents came to visit in the afternoon

He found out the Bitch of Belsen wanted Rock back

But there was no way he would let her do that

So he decided to attack one of the attendants

He had gained freedom but now lost it all including any possibility of independence

The nurse put rock to sleep and I went to bed

But in the middle of the night I awoke with dread

Rock had already gotten up and left the room

I ran out to look for him through the gloom

That's when I saw his body hanging from a rope 

The attendant was trying to save him, was there still hope?

I looked closer at the colour of his head

It was all purple, he was definitely dead.

Romeo and Juliet poem

Assignment: write a poem from Romeos perspective on Juliet.

Roses are red
Violets are blue
I thought I liked rosaline
Until I saw you
So let's get married
Because our love is true.
