Poem It’s a free verse so it can be about anything but it has to have 12 lines with out meter or a rhyme scheme Has to have four sound devices Use for four of figurative language It can be like 3 alliteration and a onomatopoeia
This is for writing poems? Or are you making one?
Both
I'm asking the creator of the post.
Or is this asking for help to create one with these guidelines?
@Eiwoh2 I have to come up with one but I’m nit good at this
Ah, okay. So 12 lines, has to rhyme, 4 sound devices, and 4 figurative langauge.
All right so let's start by asking if you know what these terms mean. Sound devices and figurative language?
Yes I know what they mean
All right. Perfect. So you would like to incorporate alliteration in your poem. So you just need a topic?
Well here’s my problem I can’t do poems I’m alwful at making them So far the only thing I have is Rain pours down outside the window Days roll by like it’s nothing But it’s still the same thing Dark cold and alone
Okay, that's a wonderful theme. Just days alone while rain pours outside. Maybe in the second half of the poem you can imagine you were outside in a happy enviroment.
So how about we incorporate the rhyme factor in the first 4 lines. Maybe we can edit the first two into Rain pours down outside the window Days roll by, while i'm stuck in sorrow
thats good
Thank you, Rye. What do you think, Clon?
That’s good I like it
Wait a minute. The question states "without a meter or a rhyme scheme."
Ouch.
My bad, I misunderstood that. So I guess your version of the first four lines is good, we just need to add some of the figurative speech there.
Well if I keep the first four lines I still have 8 more to do
Yes sir. So i'll give you an idea. Rain pours down outside the window Days roll by like it’s nothing But it’s still the same thing Dark and cold like a bat in a cave
So I tweaked the last line so it can contain a simile, thus taking care of one of the figurative language uses.
So the next four lines could be about your imagination and how it spreads to being outside in sunshine and rainbows, for example. And you can include a personifcation use, such as "the flowers danced around me" or something like that.
Okay thanks
No problem! Check back with me if you have any more questions or want me to revise what you have so far. :)
Sooo this is what I have so far Rain pours down outside my window Dats roll by,while I’m stuck in sorrow Dark and cold like a bat in a cave Frozen in time stuck in thought But outside her mind Flowers dance around kids The splash of water from the kids swimming Birds singing yet she’s stuck in her head
Ik it’s only 8
