Japan Posted March 17, 2005 Share Posted March 17, 2005 [COLOR=Navy]I had to write some poetry for a project, and here is one of them. Please tell me what you think. [CENTER][B]The Substitute[/B] I came to school one day to find My teacher wasn’t there. Instead a stranger sat inside With fine unruly hair. Class started out quite well that day But soon grew most annoying. Because of many silly rules This teacher was employing. He wouldn’t let us talk at all Especially no idle prattle. We students all rebelled at that And soon began the battle. Airplanes, they began to fly And spit balls they did hurl. They landed everywhere About the room was much awhirl. We were too big to act like that This teacher strongly stated. Down the aisles he did pace He was more than aggravated. He made us sit up straight and tall And face the front of class. He seemed not to care if school was fun How could he be so crass? The minutes they ticked slowly by The lesson was so boring. Someone even slept that day We could hear him snoring. Our teacher was not happy, That we gave the sub some flack. But we were really happy, When we had our teacher back.[/CENTER][/COLOR] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Semjaza Posted March 17, 2005 Share Posted March 17, 2005 That was pretty funny, reminded me of those daysI think the simple rhyming scheme really suits what you're trying to do here. Good job. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
