DEFINITION POEM
Each line of this poem takes off from a different "sense" and
the first line is almost like a metaphor, while the remaining four use similes.

Hope

I am hope
as old as earth,
sun and moon.
Yet I feel young,
like a crisp, warm breeze
sweeping down rainy dew fields.

I am the blue of skies,
oceans and rivers,
flowing gentle as rain.
I am hope.
I will not perish,
born of the first man.
by Vince Freeman

Loneliness

 Loneliness is gray.
It sounds like a cold wind in winter.
It smells like an attic in autumn.
It tastes like bitter aspirin.
Loneliness feels like a tear gently running down your face.

WHAT IS A FRIEND?

Someone who is there for you
Honest in all situations
Cares abvout your feelings
A person you can tell anything

Someone who never lies
Someone you can depend on
You share memories together
Hardly fight with each other

Miss them when they're away
Someone you can never forget

That is a friend!
