okay everyone. i may be insane, and you may know it. and just in case you don't believe that, this ought to prove you wrong.
see, i hate poetry. BUT we are doing poetry in school, and I got a really really really good mark on my poem. and i actually liked it. *seriously!?* yup. but i think it's kinda creepy that my teacher actually interpreted it and understood it better than I did.. O_O oh well. anyway... you see where this is going don't you? here it is, the worst poem you have ever read anywhere, that I like anyhow:

Calm Loneliness

Trailing down a snowy path,
listening to my own short breaths,
a breezy wind whispers in my ear.
All is still.
I marvel at
the pale frozen tree branches
reaching at the sun,
in the cloudless sky.
Like a flame in the sea,
she sits upon her cloudy throne
and rules the skies.
I strain to feel the warmth of her rays,
but to no avail. Brrr!
I shiver in the cool winter wind,
but the sadness is still there.
Trudging on
towards the far-off mountains
I notice tiny paw-prints in the snow,
like the last two cookies on a porcelain plate (I'm sorry, couldn't help it... I love cookies)
delicate and precious, yet so out of place...
Somewhere in the distance
a wolf cries,
the fox raises its nose
to sniff the air,
as the deer sprints
a w a y .

The natural scent
of conifers
floats around me,
I breathe in
the cold, fresh winter air.

A calm loneliness
surrounds me and
I think of home.
Home.
The word feels strange in my mouth,
rusty. unused.
I have no home.
I sleep under the stars,
in awe of the clear, endless night sky.

I am the Spirit of Winter.

...like I said, this is really random, but who cares? ^^ now just to be even weirder, I'm gonna post my mark and teacher's comments as well. xD how could you look me in the eyes and tell me I'm not strange? well, here it is anyway:

Use of figurative speech: Exemplary
All figures of speech were represented with a very clear purpose

Revision of vocabulary: Exemplary
Excellent use of the thesaurus to strengthen the word choice

Use of structure: Very apparent purpose behind structuring of thoughts to create emphasis and flow of ideas

Focus on figurative meaning: Excellent job maintaining the figurative focus throughout the poem and in the title

Comments: Wickedly good! I'd like you to present this in the next assembly, OK? Let me know.

...see? told ya I was weird. but oh well. i feel sorry for you. why'd you even bother reading this, anyway? rofl.
By the way, we had to write these poems to a picture that we liked, preferably an old calendar pic from home. i like the picture i used. here i go again, being random again. xD
ahh... bite me.^^
hugs! (not really) Poison^^
