#NaPo


Hey Alice is here to try writing at least 6 to 7 poetries this month. Not actually a big fan of poetry but how can I miss any events on our own YWS.

So wish me luck I am kinda nervous!!!!!

1.Resurrection


Image

Every ending is a new beginning


Wanna change directions,
I know it's scary.
Wanna start over,
I know it's hard.

I know you fear,
to be rebirth
to resurrect.

Your past is like a heavy baggage,
leave it, your life will seem lighter.

Start a new beginning,
Maybe you will find your true self better.

Hi ImaginativeAlice! Great start with your first poem!! Love the fact that you included a gif of a phoenix, that matches the theme of the poem perfectly :) I also really enjoyed the casual tone you establish with words like "wanna", it makes the reader feel like they know the speaker quite well and encourages them to take the poem's advice ^^ I think my favourite two lines from this poem would be "Your past is like a heavy baggage, / leave it, your life will seem lighter."

Keep it up, I hope the rest of your NaPo-ing goes well c:
When you're faced with something you don't understand, I think the most natural thing but also least interesting thing you can be is afraid.

2. A Gift from God


Image

"We are born as innocents, we are polluted by advice"



A power
a shield
that god gave us
is gone

Our purity
our honesty
is gone.

We are polluted,
by this evil world.

The only thing a baby has,
was taken away from him.

A gift from god,
our innocence
is gone

The Test day (in other words the worst day)


Image



I am sitting on my school desk,
trying not to grin.
Oh, it's such a blessed day,
my test is going to begin.

My eyes are swellled up,
I have not slept last night.
Learning every science lesson,
until it was five.

Miss Marie is distributing the papers,
and I must say she is a strict teacher.

But why should I worry,
I am fully prepared up.

She came to our desk,
gave us the test paper.
And oh no!
I am in danger.

I looked at the board
and then at the paper.

They both said the same thing
It's a Maths test paper.

My grin is turned to grim,
I don't know what to do.

I see my friends hiding their smile,
now everything is coming to light
It was an evil trick,
they played.

Tell me if you can relate!!!

I am one of a kind


Image

"In order to be irreplaceable, one must always be unique"



Hey, friend,
I know I am here again.
In the midst of the night.
with tears in my eyes.

I need someone
to listen
I need someone
to understand

There is nothing wrong with me,
I am totally fine.

I am just unique
And I don't think
There is anything
wrong with it

I like myself
and want everybody around
to do the same

However
A stare
a laugh
is only what
I get

I haven't got a friend.
except you, my little pillow

Just because
I am special
I'm one of a kind.

Alice's wonderland


Image

"Night is to see the dreams and day is to make them true"



Everything here is just
peaceful and quiet
Blue oceans
and starry night

I can eat whatever I want
And do whatever I like
Oh, why the real world
and the dreamworld aren't alike

I am riding on a unicorn
I am jumping on the clouds
I am queen of the castle<3
I am wearing a diamond crown

Flash!
The dream changes
it has now become
scary and strange

My nose is full of earthy smell
I hear the rustling of leaves.Wait!
I know where I am
It's a forest, a place I hate

It's so dark and dreadful
there is nobody around
It so awfully quiet
except the rain's sound

I don't like this place
Someone please wake me up
I hear the sound of footsteps
emerging from the dark.

Oh, dreams are not always nice
There are scary ones too.

Let your tears drop


Image

"A strong person is not the one who doesn't cry, the strong is the one who cries and shed tears for a moment, then gets up and fights again."



Don't cry
they won't understand you
Don't cry
they will humiliate you

Why don't they understand
crying is not bad
crying is not a weakness

It is a way
to reduce sadness
It is a way
to compress anger

It won't help
if you act strong
Your heart is heavy
with grief
with anger

Let it go
Let your tears drop
until your heart
feels light
Imagination is a superpower. Use it well!

Alice you're doing a lovely job putting these poems together with just the right gif to add to the story! I'm finding the poems have such clear emotion coming across. One of my favorite ones is "Alice's Wonderland" since I think dreams are such a great poetic subject, and the different transitions as the speaker (and reader) tries to figure out what's going on is pretty interesting to follow! :) Also it looks like you hit your goal of 6-7 poems!! Well done! <3
you should know i am a time traveler &
there is no season as achingly temporary as now
but i have promised to return

In the darkness of woods


Image

"It is nice finding that place where you can just go and relax


The gurgle of the stream
and the light Oregon breeze.
Here is my little world
away from everything


The chirping of the birds
The views of the mountains
The wet green grass
The cold blue stream

I like to be here
every evening
away from the stressful life
enjoying the twilight

The peaceful thoughts in my mind
The relaxing views of the sky
The calming sound of the stream
Makes me feel like it's a dream

You all must be wondering
where is this place
It sounds kind of
a fairytale

It's a place beyond our picket fence
In the darkness of woods
Imagination is a superpower. Use it well!
