Poems of Such…

Apple Blossoms in the spring

Apple blossoms in the spring
I just got a diamond ring and it is beautiful
And has so much beauty
Hey look what I see
Apple blossoms in the spring and my diamond ring

Zona Bond

I’m better off dead, ‘cause life was a twisted society
That mistreated me
Everyone pointed their fingers, even gossiped
Why?
Well, I’ll tell you why
For they feared someone different
But I meant no harm, just wanted to be
One day a group of misfits torched her house
Gently smothered by the smoke, she awakened with cries for help
But none was offered
They knew in their hearts for it was wrong
So they’ll suffer for the rest of their lives
Now for it’s …show more content…
Where do I begin?

Where do I begin?-let me start off by saying I love you

Where do I begin?-let me just start by saying I apologize to you

Where do I begin?-let me just say I never meant to hurt you

Where do I begin?-let me just say I am so lost without you

Where do I begin?-let me just ask can this really be our end?

What I Don’t Understand
What I don’t understand is how this could be
If I love you and you love me
I thought we were supposed to be happy
Not me constantly being in agony
You say I did things to violate you
But what about all of the things you’ve done and do
And I still have all this love for you
It’s like nothing that you do is ever wrong
I’m so tired of sitting up late nights crying to sad songs
Maybe it is time that I move on
Could everyone have been right all along?
I never meant for things to be this way
I’m oh so sorry and I mean it with every breath I say

I loved you with all my heart
I wish our love didn’t have to

    Analysis Of Zhang's Poem 'Other Girls'

    Her description of swallowing a leaf is given among the experiences of a miserable cycle from being unable to speak, to making her dad angry because of her impediment, to the beginning feel of pebbles in eyes, to crying and back to the origin of the story. The sentences are very abstract, especially when she says “I was not even really alive.” (Zhang, 2012) Nevertheless, in fact, this poem is related to one of her emotion described in her fiction Other Girls. It is a metaphor reflecting her memory when her riding instructor mistook her shyness for not knowing English (Zhang, 2012).…

    Poem Analysis: Another Elegy

    “Another Elegy” is a poem about the relationships in life that happen. In the line “This is what our dying looks like..” gives us as a reader the feeling that we need to believe that when something bad happens, we need to just believe that something that is there. The poem is about someone trying to kill themselves. It happens in the line, “he let the gun go off in his mouth.” Then, all of a sudden, the bad side of the person in the poem comes out.…

    High School Apology Letter

    So now, Thomas, I am writing back to your letter I received on the day I graduated High School. Unfortunately, the letter was a year too late. In the following six months after I told you goodbye in January, I found happiness in myself and met someone new. I appreciate your letter explaining your actions over the past year and how sorry you are, and I accept your apology. I appreciate you telling me now that you loved me then and still do now, but I’m afraid I no longer love you, and telling me you love me in a letter wont change my mind.…

    Poem At Thirty Nine Analysis

    Within the line “All of us as vital as the one light we move through,” I would change ‘vital’ to ‘meaningful.’ The word ‘vital’ fits a physiological topic better than the genre of this poem, while ‘meaningful’ includes the emotions and feelings expressed later in the poem. ” In the line “as worn as my father's cutting sugarcane,” I would change the word ‘cutting’ to ‘cleaving’ to greatly emphasize the work the father is doing “so [the author’s] brother and [the author] could have books and shoes,” as harvesting sugarcane is more difficult than how Richard Blanco described it. Next, I would change ‘mingled’ to ‘interlaced’ in the line “The dust of farms and deserts, cities and plains mingled by one wind–our breath,” being that the word ‘mingle’…

    College Admissions Essay: Why I Love You

    The song lyric “I 'd like to have the time I lost and give it back to you” is so relevant to how I feel about us. I wish I could take all the time I wasted or have and be able to give it back to you and have that time to be with you. Since I know that is impossible, I want to make every day, minute, second, and so on special and memorable for us. I want every moment to be where we grow together. I love when people ask me about my boyfriend because I could talk about you forever.…

    A Late Aubade Poem Analysis

    Using Carpe Diem to Manipulate Women Andrew Marvell’s “To His Coy Mistress,” Robert Herrick’s “To the Virgins, to Make Much of Time,” and Richard Wilbur’s “A Late Aubade” all use the idea of seizing the day to seduce women. The first two poems address women who are resisting having sex and the poets are pressuring them to remember that time and their youth is fleeting and they’ll die virgin old maids if they don’t make love and get married while they are still young and attractive. Wilbur’s poem differs in that he has already made love to the woman he is talking to and is entreating her to stay in bed and not get up, saying that time spent in bed with him is the best use of her time. An aubade is a lover’s farewell song, usually sung at…

    Analysis Of The Poem Piano

    All three poems have several moods and tones that allow the readers understand what and why the poet feels this way throughout the poem. ‘Piano’ is a nostalgic, retrospective and reluctant poem although the mood in this poem is toward the dampening and melancholy side, “my manhood is cast,” throughout the poem he explains how he misses her mother in the past memories, “pressing her poised feet” and at the upmost importance that he “weeps like a child for the past,” this represents remembrance because he misses his mother the most since he was the closest to his mother out of all of his family. He misses her mother from this quote as she had left this world around years ago; we know this poem is retrospective as he “weeps” that suggests the term crying. He also let’s the reader know how his childhood was revolved…

    Sinbad Poem Analysis

    What would one expect to be the feelings of a man who was born and raised in Mumbai, but travelled the world during his child- and adulthood? A man who has lived in London, New Delhi, New York and Hong Kong? It are the feelings of just a common man that Dom Moraes - an Indian poet - portrays in his poem ‘Sinbad’. An analysis of the poem reveals that through the apostrophe which addresses ‘Sinbad’ and formal characteristics such as rhythm, free verse and punctuation, the reader gets an impression of desultoriness. This represents the theme of belonging nowhere, travelling and the author’s personal quest for finding a ‘home’.…
