Poetry Contest

Remembering  9/11
By Luke Bryan

Sometimes I sit alone,
not knowing what to think,
but come to the conclusion
of a horrible intrusion

The day was not long ago,
when the world started to slow
and heard the sickening news
of America's great blues

Thousands of us had died,
and twice that many cried,
when we heard the sickening news
of Americas great blues

We still hold them in our hearts
and we miss there loving parts
but we will still remember
the grief of that September

  2. I think that you are awesome at writing poems. I really like the vocabulary that you rhymed with. I liked the first two lines in the 3rd paragraph the most because the are very thoughtful and true put also very sad. I wouldn't change anything in it. I think that it is perfect!

  4. I'll be honest, I'm not a huge fan of rhyming poem because sometimes they seem a little Dr. Suess to me. However, your rhyming works well here! You used such strong words like "conclusion", "intrusion" and "grief". You also used beautiful slant rhymes (remind me to tell you what that is). I'm really pleased with your work. As far as advice, maybe add some "color" words throughout the piece to give your reader more of a picture. Well done!
