I am in a creative writing class and I thought I would share some of my homework.
A poem with 8 stanzas, 3 lines per stanza, freewriting
Marriage
unites the bold to a tower
wearing
white and black to fit together
leaping
to their destiny in unusual stripes
the
years seem to scold the beginning
glowing
in dawn's brilliant symphony
forcing
time to play with the old man
I
rust through the sediment of thought
using
the natural hues of love
pulling
them along to complete the circle
the
love of mind melts into subconscious
dressed
in peaceful intent
comparing
faded youth to eternity
pencil
seems to know where she goes
to
wear the fabric of hormones
fighting
perceived reality in a duel to the death
looking
thru the window of home
shining
faces now sublime
calling
out to wait for me
he
sees the breath draw thru the room
clothed
with the innocence of there
melting
into the new ideal
joining
thru forever's hold
glowing
with moon's breath
releasing
joys to mine unfold
