My experience with poetry: Music Song lyrics Stories
How my poem came to be: My very own doll friends
The poor little thing sat all alone in the corner Seams split under the arms from holding hands on long walks And ring-around-the-rosy with her much taller friend Where had she gone? Her constant companion who clutched a little too tight When the crack of thunder bullied its way into the room
Traces of makeup on her cupie doll face Shabby hair Cut haphazardly by tiny unskilled hands A dirty foot shows wear because of a long lost shoe Many days spent watching cartoons Is there nothing left? Where had she gone?
Tea parties, mud pies, and trips to the park Hiding under the covers from scary dreams Stains, tears and scars She calls them beauty marks From times so far away Where had she gone? What about me?
Can you find evidence of Alliteration? The poor little thing sat all alone in the corner Seams split under the arms from holding hands on long walks… Her constant companion who clutched a little too tight When the crack of thunder bullied its way into the room

What about personification? Her constant companion who clutched a little too tight When the crack of thunder bullied its way into the room
What about personification? Her constant companion who clutched a little too tight When the crack of thunderbullied its way into the room
