Shakespearian Sonnet

Hockey is great it is really fun
Learning to  stick handle with that little puck
I love hockey especially to skate
And when they take a shot I better duck

You need the precision of a surgeon
Also the grace and balance of a dancer
The strength and footwork of a football player
You need the endurance of a runner

Have the agility of a ninja
The eagerness of a man drunk on gin
The loyalty of a german shepard
And the willingness to fight for the win

So when people ask you if hockey's hard
Yes you must always be on your guard

There also was a dog named Harold,
Their owners loved them very much,
And to their toys they would clutch.

It makes my tongue tingle,
And it has a jingle.

Haiku 3

We are doing haikus,
In the thing we call poetry,
It is very hard.

Free Verse 5

There once was a boy named Wencil,
He lost his pencil,
So he looked and looked and looked and looked,
Until Wencil found his pencil.

Free Verse 4

An umbrella,
On a rainy day,
Protects from the elements.
