proud poem <3

A day at the beach

What could be more fun?

A day at the beach

Soaking up in the sun

The salt water hits my burnt skin as I step into the water

The waves’ kissing my feet as the water splashes everywhere

A whisper of wind sways back and forth all along the coast

The sun trying to throw rays at my back

Sand is sandwiched between my toes and seashells flying all over the place

Surfers riding the waves

Little kids building sand castles

A day at the beach

What could be more fun?

A day at the beach

Soaking up in the sun

Summer

The cool breeze stroking my hair
Little kids running around everywhere
The raging hot sun approaching down on my back
As I step all over the pretty lilacs
My feet get damp from the morning dew,
The icky things stuck to my feet like glue
People are jumping in their pools
Jumping and diving in like fools
I love everything about summer
When it’s over, its going to be a bummer <3

Proposal

For the rest of my time in creative writing, I think I’m going to write a new short story. My first one wasn’t very good, so I will probably end up writing a new one. If I don’t write my short story, I think I’m going to write a poem and make a photo story out of it. This project will probably take me a week and 1/2 to complete. I’ll add lots of pictures along with the poem, to make it more eye-catching.

Nature is a beautiful scene

Nature is a beautiful scene
the sun so bright and the sky blue
every time I step out, it is so green

I look outside and see so many different things
The sun looking down on the morning dew
Nature is a beautiful scene

The birds flying so high using their wings

Spring [Nature Poem]

Spring


The morning sun beaming down on us like a big ball of fire
the cotton candy like clouds passing by us
The green grass touching making my feet from the morning dew,
The huge tree trunks towering over us as if they are giants
The dandelions on the ground swaying back and forth from the tiny breeze
as the little florets fly away
The thunderous roar of the buses and cars coming in and out
of the school parking lot
The different colored leaves wandering around the school
falling one by one all over the place

Since There Is No Escape by Sara Teasdale

Since there is no escape, since at the end
My body will be utterly destroyed,
This hand I love as I have loved a friend,
This body I tended, wept with and enjoyed;
Since there is no escape even for me
Who love life with a love too sharp to bear:
The scent of orchards in the rain, the sea
And hours alone too still and sure for prayer—
Since darkness waits for me, then all the more
Let me go down as waves sweep to the shore
In pride, and let me sing with my last breath;
In these few hours of light I lift my head;
Life is my lover—I shall leave the dead
If there is any way to baffle death.
