Usually!

by Esther   Sep 10, 2006


Normally i will stare,
Normally i will dare,
Normally i will ignore,
Normally i will sore,

But todays the day,
I'm going to change,
Stop living on my own again!

Usually i can't climb a mountain,
Never could i build a fountain,
Always i would forget,
Always i would regret,

But todays the day,
I'm going to change,
Do some-thing new once again!

Today's the day i will climb a mountain,
And when i get to the top i will build a fountain!
Today's the day i will die,
And once again i will fly,

Yet i am not afaid of losing this skin,
The body i seek comes out from within,
Although my family weep and mourn,
I am not dead, I am reborn!

    EXCELLENT work....at the start of the poem i thought you were just placing meaningless words in because they rhymed, but as i got to the bottom it all became clear...

    again- EXCELLENT

    Hmm.. I liked the last stanza best, because it made the most sense and was quite metaphorical.. The rest I didn't feel was as good as that.. Because of rhyming some of your stanza's did not make sense and this really took away from the poem itself.. Keep up the good work though.. 4/5
