This is just something I wrote for my English homework. It's a poem, summarizing the book To Kill a Mockingbird.
There is one line that doesn't rhyme, but I don't think it matters that much. At least to me it doesn't.
Often I sit and I think and I wonder
About the times when I was younger
When Dill came for summer fun
When Jem lost his pants trying to run
And the gifts in the knot of the old tree
The first day of school I fought Walter C.
And Miss. Maudie's house that caught on fire
The time Atticus made that old dog expire
When Aunt Alexandra came to stay
Had Jem and I in a state of dismay
The case that had the whole town talking
That everyone seemed to be mocking
And the mob that came to kill Tom one night
Was stopped by me and my insight
And the day of the trial everyone was there
But it seemed that things were quite unfair
Charged with guilt Tom left his prison
Only to find his death had arisen
And soon we forgot about the trial
When Jem took me to my pageant awhile
And on the way home we were being followed
Jem and the person had a good wallow
And the next thing I knew someone was carrying him home
So I ran after them so I wouldn't be alone
Jem was hurt with a broken arm
And Bob Ewell was dead from his own harm
The man who did it was none other than Boo
Who was much nicer than I ever knew
And taking him home that late night
I found out it takes a little insight
Atticus was right when he said months before
You never really know someone until you see things from their perspective
As I stood on the porch of the old Radley place
I watched the years pass by my face
And I finally understood what I didn't before
That everyone deserves kindness, understanding, sympathy and a little more
I really hope you all liked the poem! I worked so hard on this trying to find words that would rhyme and sentences that would make sense with the rhyming words.
