Types of Poetry Free verse Haiku Limerick Cinquain

Free Verse You don't know my life and you don't know my story, But one thing I can tell you; Is it's not sprinkled with glory. My days were filled with ridicule and rumors, And all those lies spread like cancerous tumors. I pretended to block out the words as if they don't hurt, But after awhile, that no longer worked. Your words make me change into something I'm not, And for you, I pretended, I pretended a lot. Now I come home every day and lay on my bed And for hours on end, my tears are shed. I shed tears for I am so ashamed, ashamed I'm pretending to play your game. Today I end my pretending, I will pretend no more. No longer will my heart be so sore, I will be me and me I will be, and I will be me for all the others to see. And as for the rest of you, You'll always be pathetic pretenders. Amanda Leigh, Maine

Haiku Short, centuries old, Japanese poetry that reflects on nature and feelings. Line 1: 5 syllables Line 2: 7 syllables Line 3: 5 syllables Snow melts after months. Suddenly, the village is full of playing kids.
