We looked closely at several free verse poems and how the author used sensory language to help the reader visualize. Then we took a persona narrative with a strong emotion and wrote a small moment from it in free verse.

pbandj23 -- That Was A Shot!

That was a shot!
Racing down the ice,
Sweat trickling down my face,
Motioning for a shot,
The puck taking a victory lap around the net,
My face shown as if playing poker,
Tight hugs from my friends,
I scored!

I-Gift!
So determind to get it,
Wishing with all my might,
Knew I could do it.
Went upstairs all sad,
I had a feeling I was going to get it,
The next second it was in my hand!
My I-pad

Like a flashlight in my eye.
Adrenalin pumping,
Getting excited.

Excitment
It's going through my veins, my adrenaline is pumping as soon as I enter Madison Square Garden.
I see my favorite wrestlers win the matches.
I hope to come again to see my favorite wrestlers win once again.

Empty Sideline
It was last year
The St. Vito's tournament
When the final buzzer went off,
Our sideline was empty.
We won it all!
I said to myself,
"Wow!"
Just wow.
Why wow?
The season before,
Our record was 1-15!

Distracted by the ease
The sweet smell of candy
The hard core metal crushes the bone
My foot meets the platform
Each bone squished against the rickets
The metal slowy releases back.

Fright
Waking,
Made me scared.
Looking for the signs,
Of strange activity.
When I was at school,
I ran
To the school door
And had to survive the rest of school
frightened

Stealer
He stole my stuff
I do not know why
Do you?
I was really mad
I thought he was my friend
He stole my erasers
I dont think hes my friend anymore
He lies in front of my face
He left to a different school
He's out of my life
And my stuff is back

Spring!
I feel the fresh breeze on my face
I feel the sun beaming on my face
Bees are buzzing around
Ouch!
I see flowers sprouting
It's not summer or fall nor winter
What season is it?

Wow!
No way!
I can’t believe it…
It’s white
It’s a rectangle shape
It has buttons
It has a screen
It can even take pictures
You can play games on it
It’s a...

Water Slide
Should I go on?
Or should I go somewhere else?
I should go on.
I am on.
Now I have to put on my seat belt.
I am going up.
Now I am scared.
It's going up.
Now it's going down.
Fast
Screaming
Now I am wet.
WATER SLIDE.

First Day...
Excited,
No,
Scared.
No, that's not right, I was feeling brave!
That's how I felt the first day at M.A.S.
In the back seat of the car
Not knowing what to expect
It seemed so lonesome
Teachers getting ready to start the new year
Saw kids running,
Hugging,
Meeting up with friends
I felt all by myself,
No one to lean on
My mom walked me up to my class room
I reached my class room
Took a deep breth,
And walked in
I didn't know what to do
I found my seat
I worked from there
And look at me now!
I feel like M.A.S is my home!
Great friends,
In the school play,
And much more.

Surprise!
Lights off,
On a soft,
Puffy,
Cloud.
Closing my eyes,
About to dream,
Peacefully.
Sleeping,
I hear a Creek.
It stops.
Mind scared,
Body shaking,
Like a cat.
BOOOOOO!
Terrified,
Screamed.
SURPRISE!
Brothers.

Scared
Fear controls my body, running around in my veins.
I scream in fear, run in the darkness.

Near Death Experience
PLEASE EXIT THE DOME!
THE DOME IS COLLAPPSING!
Tention runs through my body.
Fear is holding my body in place.
In a split second, my fun soccer game turns dangerous.
My friend's family and I speed walked to the main exit.
The exit was crowded with panicing people.
My friend pushed me through the revolving doors. People were squished like cockroaches.
I was free.
WHAT A RELIEF!

Chinese
I open my book
My nightmare awaits me
CHINESE
I feel my blood boiling
I see those cursed words
They creep into my brain
Wandering forever in my brain
Ugh, CHINESE
