Narrative: Salmon

Salmon poem a part of concrete poetry task

Salmon

I Swim,

I Swim,

And I Swim.

Through peaceful seas,

And gentle waves.

Which sway me,

Up and

Down,

And up

And down.

I snap up the smaller fish,

I avoid the bigger fish.

And I Swim.

And I Swim.

And I Swim.

Then the seas start to chill and change.

And I return to the river that first bore me.

I swim against its current,

I swim over its rapids,

And I swim along the curving course.

I avoid the sharp rocks,

I avoid the bears,

Till finally I reach the pool.

Which looks much smaller now.

I find a mate,

And we lay our eggs.

And I sleep,

And I sleep,

And I sleep.

Narrative: Love Poem

Second entry. The next task was to write a love poem, but not being someone who can write poetry i delayed writing it and it was a little rushed.

In a soft winters night,

Under a pale moon light.

The two of us walk,

Unable to talk.

We’re stuck in a daze,
and our hearts are ablaze.

Our love has begun,

It will not be undone.

Together we seek a fabled Chateau,

I wonderful place filled with Red Bordeaux.

We find ourselves by the Cherry tree,

and dance among its petal debris.
We are two of a kind,

Our hearts are entwined.

I don’t care for paradise anymore,

You’re the only one I will care for.

We are two souls lost,

On separate paths which have crossed.

Forever we shall walk side by side,

Forever with you I will confide.
