Final Exam Review

In preparation for the final exam, you must construct 10 haikus today.

14 comments:

  1. His heart is all mine
    His affection is all mine
    And I am all his

    Welcome to the day
    The day it comes together
    No day is better

    You’ve come back to me
    The man that you used to be
    I have missed you so

    My haikus are dumb
    They are always about love
    They get so boring

    The wind in your hair
    And the smile on your face
    It’s all quite perfect

    Do you realize it?
    The destruction you have caused
    And now I’m broken


    What it is they say
    That makes you untrustworthy
    I do not believe

    Life is so special
    But it’s taken for granted
    Life is meant to live

    Breaking is the heart
    I mend it with super glue
    But it does not stay

    Books are a lost world
    Each story is something new
    No one understands

  2. They fall through the cracks
    They live on the city streets
    They are the homeless

    When we close our eyes
    The fear creeps into our minds
    It is the darkness

    He will come for you
    In your sleep or on the field
    Death comes for us all

    Falling from the roof
    They see their life pass their eyes
    Death by suicide

    We are the obese
    They say we police the world
    We are Murcia

    We are cannot go home
    Is this building a high school
    Or a prison

    We fall in the black
    We will never rise again
    We are in our graves

    They will eat our brains
    Their flesh stripped from their being
    They are the undead

    They play the war games
    They use other people’s lives
    The politicians

    They won’t leave a man
    Their battle call is Hoo-Rah
    They are the Rangers

  3. I am very sick.
    My nose will not stop running.
    This cannot be life.

    Please rain down on me.
    Make all the pain go away.
    I don’t want to cry.

    I still miss you friend.
    Do you still miss me or no?
    My feelings won’t change.

    Summer is coming.
    The sun is very needed.
    School is tiring.

    Her face is white pale.
    Nobody even noticed.
    She cannot be seen.

    Love is a sickness.
    It does not bring great comfort.
    Love will kill you quick.

    We have to move on.
    Please do not think about me.
    We are now over.

    Time is running out.
    Try to capture the moment.
    It will leave us soon.

    Catch me if you can.
    Do not dwell in what could be.
    I am leaving soon.

    Happiness is joy.
    People don’t know how I feel.
    She cannot relate.

  4. This one is random
    Poems don’t always make sense
    Refrigerator

    Hungry Like the Wolf
    Is there something I should know?
    Ordinary World

    The neon colors
    Big hair, bright makeup, records
    Bring back the 80s

    The nights get longer,
    Music gets a lot louder
    Summer time, hurry

    Cows are beautiful
    No matter what they all say
    Life is beautiful

    Stressed out easily?
    Take a deep breath and calm down
    No time for worry

    Personality
    It makes up who you are as
    A human being


    The ocean and sand
    Two gorgeous parts of nature
    And the beach of course


    Video games are
    America’s favorite
    Pastime and hobby


    Sleeping and eating
    Everybody does it
    Nothing is better

  5. 1. In those snowy days
    I can feel your heat with me
    You have given me

    2. I look back in time
    To see the only mistake
    Which I can’t make up

    3. I have forgotten
    To see that you and I were
    Never meant to be

    4. Look beyond the sea
    Pain and death in front of you
    My loved ones are gone

    5. Look over to see
    I’m lost with no one to help
    I’m gone with no one

    6. Can I say goodbye?
    No, it’s just too hard to say
    I won’t let you go

    7. I am left alone
    I am no longer happy
    Let me die alone

    8. The very first touch
    I promise I fell in love
    But now you are lost

    9. I cannot stand you
    Hate you more than anything
    Get out of my life

    10. The very last bye
    This was not enough for me
    Still, I think of you

  6. I just want to leave
    Seems this day is dragging on
    I’m completely done

    Dreading English class
    If we have key passages
    I will throw a chair

    Six in the morning
    Peercing sounds of my alarm
    I’m not listening


    You inhale fluid
    everything just fades to black
    Until it wears off


    Summer’s almost hear
    the weather’s almost warmed up
    Soon we will be free


    booming fireworks
    Smells of grilled meat fill the air
    loud music blaring


    Adrenelin rush
    I say something I will soon
    regret afterword


    You walk in to find
    Everything is all a mess
    What went on all day

    The air is real damp
    it makes you wonder whether
    or not it will change

    Every time I write
    what I think’s a good idea
    It comes out different

  8. 1Open up your eyes
    Look out to the world for hope
    Find the light within

    2Ohana is love
    Ohana means family
    No one will forget

    3Up in the sky is
    The shining moon and the stars
    Find the peace in night

    4Find your peace of mind
    Find the quiet place inside
    Find that piece of you

    5A pretty kitty
    Soft kitty give me love and care
    Purr please warm kitty

    6The first glimpse of you
    Sent my heart into fireworks
    Never leave me dear

    7Be my light today
    Lead me out of the darkness
    Guide me into love

    8The sad words goodbye
    How fragile my heart is now
    You left me alone

    9Weakened my senses
    Drained my way of life and sight
    Blocked my eyes and ears

    10Have no honor
    Disgrace your family too
    What road are you on?

  9. Samantha Ruiz

    Relaxing all day
    Being with people you love
    Having memories

    Having to live life
    Chance to live everyday
    Weather bad or good

    Learning from mistakes
    Doing things to the fullest
    That is life for me

    Young to be in love
    Don’t know the meaning of it
    Its young stupid love

    Young wild and free
    Having the time of your life
    Living by no rules

    Having someone there
    Being able to talk about things
    That is what I need
    Living far away
    Being able to get there
    Making it around

    Having no time now
    Got to make movies with life
    Find what I really want

  12. 1.Invisible wall
    Separating you from me
    All eternity
    2.Lighting up the dark
    A fire gradually dies
    Until the dark reigns
    3.The cool green grass grows
    Until the winter ends it
    With its frosty breath
    4.Stars light up the night
    Showing travelers the way home
    Back to their families
    5.On warm summer days
    Children run around and play
    Enjoying their youth
    6.Books are adventures
    Taking you to distant lands
    And teaching you things
    7.Angrily splashing
    The ocean attacks a boat
    Until it’s broken
    8.Music is an art
    Expressing deep emotions
    That can’t be spoken
    9.Parents are a gift
    Protecting you to no end
    Never stop loving
    10.Tomato plants mature
    To give people their red fruit
    Instead mice steal them

  13. My dreams are like ghosts
    That haunt me every night by
    Leaving with the sun

    But where have you gone
    Did the music take you down
    Perhaps it was me

    What is there to love
    About love itself when the
    Loveliest is gone

    One little number
    Can dictate what, who, how much
    I will soon become

    Who gets to define
    Art and creativity
    They are subjective

    Oh, how wonderful
    It can be to sing a song
    To non-listeners


    Reconnected at
    Their tenth high school reunion
    Rekindled their love

    A lone text message
    Can take away your breath with
    A smile or tear

    Would it be too much
    To ask for just one goodbye
    To grace past your lips

    The first love will leave
    The scar that last the longest
    Through life’s joys and pains
