Poetry Month: Day 25 (by David)

I chose "Tiger" because in third grade I did the "Tiger" poem for a show me and my class did a show.

Tiger
Tiger! Tyger! burning bright 
In the forests of the night,
What immortal hand or eye
Could frame thy fearful symmetry

In what distant deeps or skies
Burnt the fire of thine eyes?
On what wings dare he aspire?
What the hand, dare seize the fire?

And what shoulder , & what art,
Could twist the sinews of thy heart?
And when thy heart began to beat,
What dread hand? & what dread feet?

What the hammer? what the chain?
In what furnace was thy brain?
What the anvil? what dread grasp
Dare its deadly terrors clasp?

When the stars threw down their spears,
And water'd heaven with their tears,
Did he smile his work to see?

Tyger! Tyger! burning bright
In the forests of the night,
What immortal hand or eye
Dare frame thy fearful symmetry?

Poetry Month: Day Nine (by David)

I chose "Lie" because out of all my poems this had most powerful words because it had the most powerful sentences and kind of showed personification.

Lie
Lie is the killer of truth
Lie is the son of ignorance
Lie is troublemaker of life
Lie is the cook of unfaithfulness
Lying is killing hope
Lying is hopeless
Lying fights confidence
Lying is the power of trouble
Lying isn't helping
Lying affects confidence
Lying loves the bad tempered
Lying invents more problems
Lying creates psychos
Lie was made from lazy
Lie, why would you do it?
