I'm Not a Poet

In Poetry

Teacher said to write a poem.
Bunch of lines, not much else.
Mostly about love, who cares?
I don't let them whine.





I was planning n making this a very different sort of poem, about a boy who fell asleep in English class and dreamed about dragons. Maybe I will, but I like the first verse on its own, too. It sort of gives an idea about this boy. Actually, I will go back and write the rest of the verses. Ta ta for now.

ok, first off I usually don't comment poetry because
I suck at it and probably wouldn't be much help but this one I just got to say something. my first thought after reading this was what is this?
to me this isn't a poem it's a couple sentences. I'm sure in your head it sounded ok but just this poem part is well...I can't think of a word to desribe it. so maybe if you write the whole poem it 'll make sense
then I wouldn't have to burn off the few brain cells left to figure out what this is supposed to mean.<lol>

there's not really much that you're saying, so i guess there isn't really much to say about it.

i don't know... what exactly do you want us to do with it?

it's a good poem for a quirky english assignment... but i'm kind of at a loss for what to say.

so... yeah. happy writing?



A true poet does not bother to be poetical. Nor does a nursery gardener scent his roses.
