Legendary Poem

By Lisa Camarano

Page 4: Poetry Anthology Grade 8 By Lisa Camarano \. Table of Contents Legendary Poem Legendary Poem I Am Poem I Am Poem If I can stop one heart from breaking-

She came into my life full of confidence and love,I was certain She was an angel sent from above.She has dark brown hair and blue eyes that shine,She looks perfect in anything, She looks so divine.She is beautiful without a doubt, on the inside and on the out.Her job is to take care of the elderly, She does it wholeheartedly.Her instincts are incredible, in all honesty I truly believe she deserves a medal.She always gives me the best advice about people, health, true beauty, and life.I can always count on her to be there for me when I feel as if I have no power.Like a star, She shines brightly even in my darkest hour.

I AM POEM

Page 6: Poetry Anthology Grade 8 By Lisa Camarano \. Table of Contents Legendary Poem Legendary Poem I Am Poem I Am Poem If I can stop one heart from breaking-

I am Horses, Dancing, and Music.I like long gallops in open fields and dancing like crazy when no one is around.Honesty, Confidence, and Independence are important to me.There is always tomorrow.I become aggressive when people tell me I cannot voice my opinions.But I am always willing to listen to others’ opinions.My family and friends mean the world to me.I look down on those who look down on others.I enjoy time alone.This is me. I AM.

If I can stop one heart from breakingBy Emily Dickinson

Page 8: Poetry Anthology Grade 8 By Lisa Camarano \. Table of Contents Legendary Poem Legendary Poem I Am Poem I Am Poem If I can stop one heart from breaking-

If I can stop one heart from breaking,I shall not live in vain;

If I can ease one life the aching, Or cool one pain,

Or help one lonely personInto happiness againI shall not live in vain.

By Emily Dickinson

Sonnet

Shall I compare thee to a paradise?

Page 10: Poetry Anthology Grade 8 By Lisa Camarano \. Table of Contents Legendary Poem Legendary Poem I Am Poem I Am Poem If I can stop one heart from breaking-

Shall I compare thee to a paradise?You flow forth from me oh so willingly.

To be wrenched from thee is a cruel device.It is mandatory that I shimmy.

You are just the same as singing a song, I never stop singing throughout the day,

My body just wants to follow along,Some people stare, others go on their way.

I will never trip and never stumble,You provide me with hope, and strength, and grace,

When my feelings are all in a jumble,You are sure to set me at a smooth pace.

My audience is me and me alone,When I perform thee I am in my zone.

Haiku Poem

Arched is her proud neck,Coat red as an Autumn leaf,Running with the wind.

Extended Metaphor Poem 1

The bird of free thoughts nests in my mind.He is never concerned with when he leaves or

when he returns.I never know when he will come again,

Or how long he will be absent from my mind.It does not make me anxious, worried, or afraid.If he returns or if he never returns is for him to

decide and only him.The most important thing of all is that he is

free…free…always and forever free.

She flies through the air,Light, confident, balanced, strong,Feeling as if she can conquer anything life throws at her,She feels the muscles of her dancing partner rippling beneath her,Just as confident and sure footed as She herself feels,Together, leaping, twirlingPerfectly balanced, completely in sync, reading each others’ mindsMoving as one, always as one…Dancing Partners for life.
