Melting
By Clara Napolitano 805
Snowflakes fall from the sky a dazzling white
Melting as they touch grass and
city streets
Everything seems to be brighter
than light
Covering a city as it silently
sleeps
It seems that all around the
world it snows
It seems that the snowflakes
will never stop
Though you will see that things
will grow
In places where the sun shines
bright atop
And where it snows light will
again awake
And where things grow the dark
will take suns place
And snow will melt from the
dirt humans make
Beauty taken away to another
place
Seasons will change and things
will grow
But things will die and that we
always know
This was such a good sonnet. You are really talented at poetry. I love how you took a simple subject, like snow, and really expanded on it and gave it a deeper meaning. Great job!
ReplyDeleteClara this is so good! You were so descriptive in this sonnet. Like Abby said, it was really cool how you took such a simple thing, like snow, and turned it into something deep and meaningful. I really enjoyed reading this!
ReplyDeleteThe imagery in this sonnet was amazing. I agree with both Victoria and Abby. You really looked in depth into a thing we take for granted every day and expanded on it. You worked into what we feel when we see snow and the feel of snow itself. IT WAS COOL.
