Poems

The creeping trees

Trees reach up and up,

Until they touch the  gray sky,

they will keep reaching.

 

The hoof of a horse

Horse

Hooves fly

over the ground

and through the forest

run.

Wind flys through the air,

unseen and mysterious,

it will blow you away.

For both poems the inspiration was nature. The first one, “the creeping trees” is a haiku. For a haiku the first line is five syllables then seven then five again. Well I think there is a little bit of imagery, line breaks and rhythm. I am okay how my poems turned out. I proud because I think that they are simple and short but also represent something.
