So my laptop is busted... I had to write this on my phone and I cannot type on this thing for my life so I'm sorry for any spelling or grammar errors, the next chapter for Moonshadow warriors is done but its on my laptop so be patent.
I wrote the poem in this for an English test and I got an A! Please tell me what you think of it, it had to be on a foreign culture and I did Japan!
Mikey sat at his desk indulging in his secret passion, his brothers thought all he did was sit around, watch TV and read comics but actually he wrote poetry.
All his brothers would do is laugh at him if he told them.
They thought he was to stupid for something like poetry.
But he loved it all the same.
Silently he added the last words to the poem before re-reading it.
Clothed in black from head to toe,
No one wore coloured kimonos.
Each got a weapon as time went on,
From Katanas, bos and shurikan.
Throwing the samurai in the bin,
They fought along side their kin.
The emperor's men were ignorant fools,
As they stood around the koi fish pools.
The black assasins as they were known,
Cut them down,
Blade through bone.
Masters of their art,
From childhood they training.
Never stopping,
Trying to bring honor to their family.
Silent creatures of the night,
Doing their jobs with stealth.
After a failed battle they walk.
As the shiny blade of the tanto calls,
Screaming to those who wish to fall.
Meditation calms the mind,
For those who were the last of their kind
As the final blade fell.
Looking at the rain of pink,
The cherry blossoms seemed to sing.
The final ninja,
On their knees,
Smiled in the soft breeze.
Bushido gave them peace and honor at last,
As the final ninja passed.
It was only a rough poem that he wrote in a couple of minutes, later he would work on it.
Picking up his dying pen, he scribbled a line at the top of the page.
The last ninja.
Smiling, Mikey shut the worn leather bound book he was writing in and walked away.
I really really hope you liked my poem and story! Please tell me what you thought of my poem, I'm not sure about it yet...
