Asiya’s Poetry Reflection

March 21st, 2011 by

I  don’t like  writing poetry  because its hard for me to write poetry  I never wrote a poem.  The easiest part is that they are short but the hardest part is  the end has to rhyme.  I like writing sonnet better because its easy to think about a sentence to write.

Wenna Liu’s Poetry Reflection

March 21st, 2011 by Wenna Liu

I don’t like writing poetry because I don’t like writing if you writ you have to think and I don’t like to think.The easiest thing for me when writing poetry is not to write one. The most difficult thing  to writing a poetry is I am an esl student so I don’t know about the American English .I like to write free verse poem better because it’s free verse so you can write what ever you want.

Tony Vu’s Poetry Reflection

March 21st, 2011 by Tony Vu

Nø I dø nøt like pøetry, I dø not like poetry because poetry is hard to understand and søme times it can just becøme børing. The easiest thing in pøetry for me is find rhyming wørds. The Most difficult thing is understand the meaning of poetry because usually I dø nøt understand because it makes nø sense tø me. I like the free verse because it is easy tø write and you døn’t have tø rhyme ør anything, alsø yøu døn’t need a pattern.

Hey baby girl, what you doin’ tonight?
I wanna see what you got in store
Hey baby, givin’ it your all when you’re dancin’ on me
I wanna see if you can give me some more
Hey baby, you can be my girl, I can be your man
And we can pump this jam however you want
Hey baby, pump it from the side, bend it upside down
Or we can pump it from the back to the front
Hey baby
Ooh baby, baby, la, la, la, la, la, la, la
Ooh baby, baby, la, la, la, la, la, la, la
Ooh baby, baby, la, la, la, la, la, la, la
Ooh baby, baby, la, la, la, la, la, la, la
Ooh, drop it to the floor, make you wanna say it
Yeah, you can shake some more, make you wanna sing it
Ooh, you got it because you make me wanna say, hey baby
Don’t stop it, I want you tonight
I’m a Dade County
Self-paid, self-made millionaire
I used to play around the world
Now I’m around the world, gettin’ paid
Girl problems, no problems
Don’t hate the game, that won’t solve ‘em
I wanna get wit’ ya, mami
Now let me see where the lord split ya
Hey baby girl, what you doin’ tonight?
I wanna see what you got in store
Hey baby, givin’ it you all when you’re dancin’ on me
I wanna see if you can give me some more
Hey baby, you can be my girl I can be your man

Not a goon or a goblin, I’m a monster
‘Cause I hit all the baddest women in the world, gangster
Ooh baby, baby, la, la, la, la, la, la, la

I like this song because it has rhythm to it and it gets you hyped up when you listen to it, it makes you want to dance

his song is related to a poem in the way that they both have a story to it, and they both have rhythm to it.

Believe

February 23rd, 2011 by Phong Tran

So after all those one night stands
You’ve ended up with heart in hand
A Child alone
On your own
Retreating
Regretful for the things you’re not
And all the things you haven’t got
Without a home
A heart of stone
Lies bleeding

And for all the roads you followed
And for all you did not find
And for all the dreams you had to leave behind

I am the way
I am the light
I am the dark inside the night
I hear your hopes
I feel your dreams
And in the dark I hear your screams

Don’t turn away
Just take my hand
And when you make your final stand
I’ll be right there
I’ll never leave
And all I ask of you
Believe

Your childhood eyes were so intense
While bartering your innocence
For bits of string
The grown-up wings
You needed

But when you had to add the up
You found that they were not enough
To get you in
Pay for sins repeated

And for all the years you borrowed
And for all the tears you hide
And for all the fears you had to keep inside

I am the way
I am the light
I am the dark inside the night
I hear your hopes
I feel your dreams
And in the dark I hear your screams

Don’t walk away
Just take my hand
And when you make your final stand
I’ll be right there
I’ll never leave
And all I ask of you is
Believe

I never wanted to know
Never wanted to see
I wasted my time
Till Time wasted me

I never wanted to go
I always wanted to stay
‘Cause the persons I am
Are the parts that I play
So I plot and I plan
And I hope and I scheme
To the lure of a night
Filled with unfinished dreams
And I’m holding on tight
To a world gone astray
As they charge me for years
I can no longer pay

I am the way
I am the light
I am the dark
Inside the night
I hear your hopes
I feel your dreams
And in the dark
I hear your screams

Don’t turn away
Just take my hand
And when you make your final stand
I’ll be right there
I’ll never leave
And all I ask of you…

Believe..

I like this song because this song makes me despair and remember the sad times. It doesn’t mean this song is very sad, but this song puts the listener in a sad situation and allows them to remember personal times of sadness.

It relates to the poetry because this song has lines that rhyme, such as the words alone and own,.. It’s also
repeats a phrase, like “I am” or “I’ll”.

Toby Mac Ignition

February 23rd, 2011 by Tony Vu

Start it up
Turn it on
We can ride this storm
A grip of hope in our hands
For the coming dawn
Up to our necks in complexities
Causing us to pause
As we collect our thoughts

So don’t blink if you wanna come cross the border
Take a look around or come test the water
We won’t stop ’till we see the morning
So welcome to the quiet before the storm hits

Turn on, turn on the ignition
Everybody
Come on, come on and turn on the ignition(x3)

Comatose
Half-hearted
Room temperature’s fine
Sleep walking, no dream is even filling our minds
Earth shaking
We be quaking like a wake up bomb
This ain’t no trouble overseas
No Vietnam

So don’t blink if you wanna come cross the border
Take a look around or come test the water
We won’t stop ’till we see the morning
So welcome to the quiet before the storm hits

(Take it up a notch, come on, come on turn it up a notch.)

Turn on, turn on the ignition
Everybody
Come on, come on and turn on the ignition(x3)

Your sleep walking
I’m sleep walking
Your sleep walking
I’m still talking
Come spark the parts in me that all but died
Jump start my heart and wake the sleeper inside
Hold up the flag ’cause it’s ride or die
Hold up the flag ’cause it’s ride or die

I like this song because I found it in a Anime Music Video and it fit the video. I also like this because Toby Mac is a Christian singer and my religion is Christianity.

This song relates to poetry because it has repetition in it, they have a lot of repeating lines. The song has a good simile “We be quaking like a wake up bomb”. A simile is a comparison between two things using like or as.

“My Heart Will Go On”

February 23rd, 2011 by

Every night in my dreams
I see you, I feel you,
That is how I know you, go on

Far across the distance
And spaces between us
You have come to show you, go on

Near, far, wherever you are
I believe that the heart does go on
Once more you open the door
And you’re here in my heart
And my heart will go on and on

Love can touch us one time
And last for a lifetime
And never let go ’til we’re gone

Love was when I loved you
One true time I hold to
In my life we’ll always go on

Near, far, wherever you are
I believe that the heart does go on
Once more you open the door
And you’re here in my heart
And my heart will go on and on
(Mmhmm)

You’re here, there’s nothing I fear,
And I know that my heart will go on
We’ll stay forever this way
You are safe in my heart
And my heart will go on and on

I like this song because it  tells you about your life and  because she has a  really  nice voice and it makes me emotional.  This song has verses.  This song has lines that rhyme because some word ends with rhyming words like go on,on time, and on and on. This song has verses because it has groups  of lines.

Can’t Take My Eyes Off You

February 23rd, 2011 by Wenna Liu

Chorus 1
You’re just too good to be true.
Can’t take my eyes off of you.
You’d be like heaven to touch.
I wanna hold you so much.
At long last love has arrived.
And I thank God I’m alive.
You’re just too good to be true.
Can’t take my eyes off of you.

Verse 1
Pardon the way that I stare.
There’s nothing else to compare.
The sight of you leaves me weak.
There are no words left to speak.
But if you feel like I feel.
Please let me know that it’s real.
You’re just too good to be true.
Can’t take my eyes off of you.

Chorus 2
I need you baby, and if it’s quite all right
I need you baby to warm the lonely nights.
I love you baby. Trust in me when I say it’s ok.
Oh pretty baby, don’t let me down I pray.
Oh pretty baby, now that I found you, stay.
And let me love you,
Oh baby let me love you, oh babe.

Chorus 1
You’re just too good to be true.
Can’t take my eyes off of you
You’d be like heaven to touch.
I wanna hold you so much.
At long last love has arrived.
And I thank God I’m alive.
You’re just too good to be true.
Can’t take my eyes off of you.

Chorus 3
I need you baby, and if it’s quite all right,
I need you baby to warm the lonely nights.
I love you baby. Trust in me when I say it’s ok.
Oh pretty baby, don’t let me down I pray.
Oh pretty baby, now that I found you, stay.
And let me love you baby , oh baby let me love you

Chorus 4
I need you baby, don’t let me down I pray.
Oh pretty baby, now that I found you, stay.
And let me love you.
And let me love you, oh babe.

I like this song because it makes me emotional and happy.  And it also makes me want to dance. This song can be a poetry because it’s has verse and rhyme. The verse are group of lines in a poem or song, “Can’t Take My Eyes Off You” it’s a song so it verse.The rhyme is repetition of the final sounds of words.For example “pray”and “stay”
