Extended Metaphor Poem

                        " To Play or Not To Play"

I as I laid in my bed I began to think
The question to ask what should I do today?
I could exercise or play video games all day.
If I played games I would have fun but...
 it would not be very health.
If I exercised I would not have as much fun but...
 it would be fantastic for my health.
I tossed and turned, most of my friends where online playing just...
because it was easier.
I got up and decided that it would be best if I...
exercise because it would benefit me in the long run.
As I got ready to go and exercise I notice that...
A surge of adrenaline went through my body.
I left my house and ran...
And I decided to exercise everyday.
That made all the difference.

Poetry Reflection

                After the poetry unit poetry had become a bigger part of my live because it has started to interest me.  At the beginning of the poetry unit, poetry was not very important in my live it did not interest me.  Now I want to read different types of poem that I did not even know that exist, that are so interesting that I do not want to stop reading. It did not interested me because I felt that most poem had rules that where difficult to write, they where sometimes boring to read, and sometime even more difficult to understand as certain points. The poetry unit introduced me to so many types of poems that where easier to understand, that where much easier to write, and that where much more interesting than the most commonly found poems.'


               I believe that poetry belongs to everyone in the world and that anyone could read it and/or write it.  I know that poetry belongs to everybody because it is like any other type of writing and it needs to be read to enjoy the creation of others that have made to express their emotions or their creativity.  I also know that poetry is meant to be seen or written by anyone because there are no rules that say that someone cannot write poetry for any reason we are only limited by our imagination and how we are feeling. No one in the world should be deprived the ability to read what they want or what they want to write in their spear time. I could go to a pages document and just type a freestyle poem, post it online and no could stop me for any reason unless it was illegal.



               The life of a poet influence the way he/she writes and interprets a poem up to that point in their live. One way that a poet's life influence their writing is if they got their dream job they might write a poem that is joyful or gleeful. While if they were experiencing a live traumatizing event and the thought of it made them sad then they might write a poem that is melancholy, gloomy, or dreary.  They might project their life experience subconscious into their writing my putting in a metaphor a character that has lived their life like they have. An example of this is "The Road Not Taken" by Robert Frost, maybe he made a big live decision that he has to live with now that can either be positive or negative.

Spine Book Poem 3/23

 The Mutant and The Hypnotist

Divide and conquer the fault in our stars, attack of the mutant the hypnotist framed.

I wanted to create a poem that was weird and that did not make any sense so that anyone that read it would have to think and create their own story.

The main idea is that a mutant was trying to conquer love with a hypnotist but he was attack and since the hypnotist was there she was framed for the the attack.  The reason I say this is that the phrase "Divide and conquer the fault in our stars; means that the mutant wants to conquer the fault in our stars so he can have it and enjoy it. I believe that the fault in our stars can be interpreted to be a way to say love. Which would show the reader that the mutant wanted to be in love and he loved the hypnotist.

The message and theme of my poem is that not matter what type of person or if you are from a different "plant" you can still be together. I believe that this is theme and the message because the mutant and the hypnotist are two completely different species but it doesn't matter they can still be together.

Found Poem 3/23

Mother's Big Surprise 

New color burned on his skin, cold but warmth did 

not leave her fingertips, you seem so far away. 

You slid under the table sitting tired

 she close her eyes, speaking softly
I'm proud of you

I didn't know you could read.

          The main idea of my poem is that this mother found out that her son finally learned to read so she is so shocked and happy she doesn't know what emotion to feel. That is why I put the phrase cold but warmth did not leave her finger tips. Which shows the reader that she doesn't know how to react to this big event in her child's live.  As well that is why she closes her eyes because she is crying at this great accomplishment of her child. Which shows the reader that she truly cares for her son.

          The theme and message of my poems that you should always be happy and/or shock to the accomplishment of those you care for. I believe that this is the message and theme of the poem is this because this mother was crying when she found out that her son was reading. Also she now knows that he is growing up and that she is doing something correctly if her son is learning to read.  Which shows the reader that she feels unhappy knowing that soon he will be able to do more things without her.

Thinglink Interactive Poem

3rd Quarter Reflection

        I believe that the thing that I have made the biggest improvement is writing objective summary. Before the third quarter I would have used information that was to specific at certain parts of my objective summary. Now I can write a summary with a topic sentence and supporting details.  Another big improvement this quarter that is as important as my first imporvment is my word choice. Before the third quarter I would have used words like good or bad, but now I will use marvelous or inadequate.


           Something that I have accomplished and I am proud since the beginning of the years is being able to get straight a's this quarter. I am especially proud of this because this quarter at times was very challenging and it was difficult to keep up. I also had the robotics competition so I really needed to focus so we could do well in the competition. I had two extra grades in the grade book so I have to also do the work for those as well. I am very proud of achieving this so far in 2015 and I hope to do more.


            I think keeping my grades up in the third quarter was the most challenging thing that I did. I was involved in many various event that involved my time and efforts sometime distracting me from my school work. I also had many personal affairs that affect me personal and sometimes deprived from wanting do my work.  Also just flat out lazy less would sometimes take over and not wanting to do nothing more. Thankfully I was still able to  keep my grades up and get straight a's.

Character poem

Christopher Boone
Shy,Intelligent,brave,short temper
A character in Mr. Shears' Story
A lover of doing highly advanced math problems,physics equations, candy, and Sherlock Holmes.
Who notices the smallest detail, the loudest noises, and the slights touch.
Who feels scared when in a crowd area, confused when people use metaphor or similes, mad when touched by others.
Who learns how to solve a mystery, how to relax so that he does not feel scared.how to use the train station.
Who says "Prime numbers are what is left when you taken all the pattern away. I think prime numbers are like life. They are very logical but you could never work out the rules, even  if you spend all your time thinking about them."
Who use to think that that he would take his level A math test this year but now knows that he will take it next year.
A major character in The Curious Incident of the Dog at the Mid-night Time.
A book that has made me appreciate that I am healthy and that I have a family that cares for me.

The universe

Looking up into the vast unknown wondering what is there to see.

As the stars shine bright to the point were they are as bright as the city lights.

Some stars so close you can swear you can grabbed if you could just jump high enough.

You think to yourself I wish I could go their and float with the stars.

You think are we truly alone wanting know what is unknown. 

You see the formations of stars in the sky Orion, the Little Dipper, leo, and etc. 

As your parent comes out and ask you what you are watching?

You reply with seeing the most wonderful thing in the Universe.
