"The beautiful girl" entry 6

She is as beautiful
as the sunset in the Caribbean,
her eyes sparkle blue like the reflection in the water,
her lips are as soft as the puffy white clouds,

her hair is soft like the sand,
her smile shines bright like the sun,
her breath, her breath is as cool and chilling as the winds breeze,
her skin is tanned like the beautiful orange sky,

her body is as perfect as the mermaids sitting and singing on the rocks,
her voice is sweet like the milk from a fresh cut coconut,
and like the sunset,
i could look at her forever.

soldiers and war

I feel the media portrays soldiers to be jacked hot headed idoits, that are amazing at fighting, not scared of anything, kind of like a real bad ass. I feel the portray war to be bloody and gory, and that only the amaricans are the good guys, and everyone else is the bad guys.In the poem "Dulce et Decorum Est" by wilfred owen. They portray war to be brutal, scary, men at there worst, painfull. They portary the soldiers to be brave, and mentally strong. i believe this poem is more true about war then what the media portrays. 

the charge of the light brigade

Half a league, half a league,
Half a league onward,
All in the valley of Death
Rode the six hundred.
"Forward, the Light Brigade!
"Charge for the guns!" he said:
Into the valley of Death
Rode the six hundred.


 "Forward, the Light Brigade!"
Was there a man dismay'd?
Not tho' the soldier knew
Someone had blunder'd:
Theirs not to make reply,
Theirs not to reason why,
Theirs but to do and die:
Into the valley of Death
Rode the six hundred.


 Cannon to right of them,
Cannon to left of them,
Cannon in front of them
Volley'd and thunder'd;
Storm'd at with shot and shell,
Boldly they rode and well,
Into the jaws of Death,
Into the mouth of Hell
Rode the six hundred.
Flash'd all their sabres bare,
Flash'd as they turn'd in air,
Sabring the gunners there,
Charging an army, while
All the world wonder'd:
Plunged in the battery-smoke
Right thro' the line they broke;
Cossack and Russian
Reel'd from the sabre stroke
Shatter'd and sunder'd.
Then they rode back, but not
Not the six hundred.


 Cannon to right of them,
Cannon to left of them,
Cannon behind them
Volley'd and thunder'd;
Storm'd at with shot and shell,
While horse and hero fell,
They that had fought so well
Came thro' the jaws of Death
Back from the mouth of Hell,
All that was left of them,
Left of six hundred.


 When can their glory fade?
O the wild charge they made!
All the world wondered.
Honor the charge they made,
Honor the Light Brigade,
Noble six hundred.

Blog Assignment: Response to "The Raven"
Why do you suppose Poe's narrative poem, "The Raven", has stood the test of time? What do people find so frighting about this poem 166 years after it was first published?


I feel that the poem "the Raven" by Edgar Allan Poe has stood the test of time because I feel that the poem creates a  suspence and scary mood to the poem, the situation in the poem from the way Poe writes his word, the poem just flows in a weird way that makes it suspenseful. In my opinion scary and suspenseful is good for a poem it makes you want to keep reading. It also has a story to it which makes it more  interesting then a description poem.
The poem has stood the test of time because I feel the poem is unusawell and scary and people like that.

The poems stanzas are set up 1-2-3-2-2-2, so the poem could be used or was used for an example for the pattern of its stanzas.  


Therefore the poem "The Raven" by Edgar Allan Poe is a poem in my opinion with a scary, and suspenseful mood that attracts the reader and keeps them reading. As well the poem is great for teachers or students for teaching and learning.   










   

A red, red rose

O my Luve's like a red, red rose
That's newly sprung in June;
O my Luve's like the melodie
That's sweetly played in tune.

As fair art thou, my bonnie lass,
So deep in luve am I;
And I will luve thee still, my dear,
Till a' the seas gang dry:

Till a' the seas gang dry, my dear,
And the rocks melt wi' the sun;
I will luve thee still, my dear,
While the sands o' life shall run.

And fare thee weel, my only Luve,
And fare thee weel awhile!
And I will come again, my Luve,
Tho' it ware ten thousand mile.



The author who write this poems name is Robert Burns. I made my title "so deep in luve" because it was an awesome quotation from the second stanza second line. The theme of this poem is love, and the title I used represents this theme. Another quote that shows the theme of love is "I will luve thee still," the author Robert Burns is talking about a girl that this man loves and how this man will love the women no matter what happens. This theme relates to me when I watch the movie notebook, how the man loved the girl his whole life even tho he never saw her for a long time, but no matter what happend he still loved her
