This poem was written for English...I got 17/20 for it. I'm not sure I like it, but I thought I'd post it anyway and see what you all thought.


Country Town

The dusty road –
Red and dry,
Winding around the corner shop.

The doors, ajar –
Beckoning,
Inviting you for a cuppa.

The open paddocks –
Spacious,
Cattle grazing under the sun.

The smiling faces –
Friendly,
Tending to their crops.

A country town –
My Home.
A magnificent place to be.

Its nice but something is missing... Its too short and I would of loved it to be longer. I think its good though why so short?!

Because I couldn't think of anything else to write....lol. I don't even live in a country town. :)

And it looks longer when it's written out by hand...I tricked myself.

I liked it. I can relate to it. For me, it would be more like "Richest Country City," but the people in the country are as nice as you put them. . . .And way to misunderstood. . .

Good poem, though. I don't know what it's requirements were, but I would have given it full credit.
