My family is my most prized posesion.
They are always willing to help me,
even if i had made a brutaly bad mistake.
They are always loving  and supporting me.
Without my family i would be like a ship wreck waiting to happen.
Without them i would be incomplete.

Always Appreciate

Always accept acts of appreciation
being bright can really bring somebodies  mood up
you never know how much of an effect you can have on somebody.

Never Grow Up ( Quatrain ABCB )

I used to always want to grow up
I always wanted to be older
But now i realise
That thinking that was a complete blooper

My Dad ( Quatrain ABCB)

I hope one day to be like my determined father
He's know's what right and wrong
And all the lyrics to every song
He could even be the next best selling author

What used to be ( Free Verse )

.

What used to be a happy peaceful community
is now a place of war and hate.

What used to be a clean environment
is now filled with the scent of death.

What used to be a place of warmth and security
is now a place full of frightened people and horror filled screams.

Gloomy Day ( Haiku )

The rain slowly falls
On this very gloomy day
Waiting for the sun

City of Love ( Quatrain ABAB )

There he is staring at me
Under the Eiffel tower
I cant help but skip over to him with glee
As he is the weakness to my power

Dream ( Haiku )

Is this all a dream,
Or is this reality.
Will we ever know?

Little Things ( Quatrain ABAB )

Take time to notice the little things
Because everything is so wonderful
You might find something of your likings
and make you feel very thankful

Bullying ( Free Verse )

As tears stream down her face she wonders what did I ever do,
what did I ever do to deserve this.
I know people make mistakes ,
but was my mistake to big ?
I didn't think i deserved to be treated like a piece of garbage.
"You're as dull as a rock"
"Nobody likes you"
"You my as well die"
Such harsh words don't just leave you alone.
They haunt you.
They taunt you.
Harsh words hurt.
So think before you speak.

Bestfriend ( Free Verse )

Having a best friend is like having a sister

They always know what you're thinking
They can read you like a book.

They always know when your down
And how to completely cheer you up.

They always know how to make you laugh
Even if the jokes aren't funny.

They always know how to handle you at your worst
And that's what makes them the best.

World Peace ( Haiku)

I see the white dove
And world peace comes to my mind

Judgement ( Shakespearean Sonnet )

All anybody does these days is judge
Even if you are being your own self

People can learn to hold a major grudge

Wouldn't you think that it would hurt oneself?

Knowing that you  put somebody else down

Knowing that you had reuined their whole day

Making them feel like they could just drown

Making them feel like its their own  doomsday

Before you judge make sure you are perfect
That you have absolutely no flaws

You don't want to start any more conflict

And be the major reason of the cause

Next time before you decide to speak
Make sure you won't make somebody else weak

Perfection ( Free Verse )

Her skin was as clear as a  sunny day's sky
But yet all she saw were the flaws

Her hair was tangle free
But all she saw was a rat's nest

All we see are the imperfections
But in reality we should see the perfections

The Birdie (haiku)

The bird in the tree
Flaps his wounded wings at me
Hoping to soon fly

Summer Loving ( Quatrain AABB)

walking along the shore
i stop and listen to hear the ocean roar
with the sand scratching at my feet
i think to myself this is a summer i would love to repeat

That Feeling ( Free Verse )

 That feeling you get when stepping on the ice for the first time
 That feeling you get when you take your first stride
 That feeling you get of nervousness in your gut before the first whistle blows
 That feeling you get skating as fast as the wind
 That feeling you get scoring your very first goal
 That feeling you get hearing the crowd roar for you
 That feeling you get when you win your first game
 That feeling you get knowing you did the best you can possibly do
 All that really matters is that one feeling

Hello Fellow Classmates ! (:

I am here to inform you all on what made me choose the blog title that i did. As you can all see my blogs title is "Maddie's Blog" . I chose this title because i don't want to have to make my poems about one specific topic or theme. I think personally it would be better to have your poems vary in topics and not have to limit your ideas. By naming my blog " Maddie's Blog " its gives me so many more options on what my poems can be about and i really enjoy that opportunity. Even though my blog does not have a specific theme i will  be writing poems that are very easy to relate to and do really make you think. I hope you enjoy reading my poems as much as i will enjoy reading yours. xoxo maddie<3
