This is just a poem on Johnny that I had to do for school… and I thought, 'Hey! What the heck. Why not put it on FanFiction?' So here you go! Enjoy!

Narrative Poem – Johnny Cade

This person in the old jeans jacket

Is the quiet Johnny Cade

He kept his mouth shut good around cops

And the gang called him Johnnycake

He's been afraid and a nervous wreck

Ever since he got jumped by those socs

Afraid of everything, his own shadow

Even a little fox

The gang loved him very much

Thought of him as a brother

Dallas tried to keep him out of trouble

But why did he even bother?

Then one night he went for a walk

With Ponyboy by his side

They were going to get jumped in that park

And he thought they should run and hide

Then he did it, he knifed that soc

That night, he and Ponyboy fled

Running away, far away

So they wouldn't see Bob lying there dead

They went to a church in Windrixville

On top of the old Jay Mountain

Where they stayed for four or five days

But Ponyboy was lonely and frightened

Dallas Winston came to get them

From the church where they had to stay

But he didn't know about what was going to happen

To Johnny later on that day

They drove back past the church

Only to see a fire blazing

Ponyboy and Johnny jumped out of the car

And Dallas yelled, "Are you crazy!"

Johnny and Ponyboy ran into that church

With absolutely no thought at all

They managed to save all those little kids

But they didn't know the roof was about to fall

Ponyboy got out of the church safe and sound

But Johnny got hit and broke his back

Johnny screamed and Dallas went to save him

Then he clubbed Ponyboy and everything went black

Johnny was rushed to the hospital

For two days, and two days only

The second night he died and the Rumble was on

After, he got a visit from Dallas and Pony

People would write editorials about him in the paper

About how he had saved all those little kids

Dying gallantly, like the southern gentlemen

How the kids would have died if not for what he did

And even though he has passed away

His love for the gang will never die

He will watch over them from up above

Where his spirit will always fly…
