Simile - Green Hats and Tea

Have a cup of tea,

She said to he,

Like a governess or a queen.

Would you like some sugar?

She asked,

Or maybe some fresh cream?

No thank you,

He politely stated,

For, he said, while you get fat,

I will be in the military,

Wearing my green hat.

Why, you are like a dog,

She replied.

So stupid like one too.

For while you're off,

Getting shot,

I'll be here.

Toodle-oo!

Alliterative - Crazy Casey

Crazy Casey, caked with crud,

Could create a cake,

With cups and caps and wrinkled maps,

It took 25 years to bake.

Limerick- O'Casey

O, there once was a man named O'Casey,

And everyone thought he was crazy,

He sang songs to a pig,

Then at church wore a wig,

He woke up with a crown made of daisies.

Cinquain - Grass

Grass
Green, tall
Waving, wilting, dying
Stretches to the sun
Plant

Haikus

Flower

Sad without water,
It wilts to the earthen dirt,
Dying of dry thirst.


Sky

Beautiful and blue,
Looms overhead like stars,
An ocean of clouds.

Concrete Poem - Snakes

Torn - A Guess Who? Poem

I am torn and ripped and dull,
Resting in this dark place,
You tossed me yesterday.

You flavored and spiced me,
Then decided - you didn't like me,
Crumpled me up and threw me away.

Your story, your words,
What YOU want to hear,
Is resting in me, my dear, my dear.

Sugar and spice,
Isn't everything nice,
But what is, is inside.

I am your discarded story.

Free Verse - Tying My Shoes

The soft, albino snake,
Wriggles out of my grasp.
I try to control it,
But it falls into a silver metal pit.

But look! A tail sticking out,
Like a flag waving in the air.
I rescue it from its misery,
Only for it to drown in a navy blue ocean.

Metaphorical Poem - Y + W

The winter's day sounds like you,
Looks like you,
Smells like you,
Acts like you.

Your sharpness,
The cold in your eyes,
I get chills down my spine,
When I see you.

Snow does not match your complexion,
For your skin is as dark as a raincloud,
Before the storm,
Before YOUR storm.

Personification Poem - Lean Like a Flower

Weighted down with a drop,
Of angry dew,
The flower creeps down,
From the tapestry of blue.

But when the globe of light,
Dances into view,
The flower looks up,
And eyes the blue.

It stretches out,
And waves the light,
Into the darkness,
That is night.
