My daughters have asked that I post their poetry on my blog. They wrote these when they were 8 years old. They decided to use the same opening line and then to create the rest of the poem. Enjoy.



The night fell black

When I creep through the night

When I heard a howl

I was scared


I wanted to tremble

I shivered with fear.

I tried to not be scared

I was scared


I shivered and shivered

With fear.

The night fell black

I woke up in the night

I heard a noise

I felt the shivers


I felt a tingle in my belly

I wanted to scream but

I didn’t.


I stayed put and it

Came to me.

It ate me up and I

Died to death.

Mes filles m'ont demandé de poster leur poésie sur mon blog. Ils les ont écrits quand ils avaient 8 ans. Ils ont décidé d'utiliser la même ligne d'ouverture, puis de créer le reste du poème. Prendre plaisir.



La nuit est devenue noire

Quand je rampe dans la nuit

Quand j'ai entendu un hurlement

J'étais effrayé


je voulais trembler

Je frissonnai de peur.

J'ai essayé de ne pas avoir peur

J'étais effrayé


j'ai frissonné et frissonné

Avec peur.

La nuit est devenue noire

Je me suis réveillé la nuit

j'ai entendu un bruit

j'ai senti les frissons


J'ai senti un picotement dans mon ventre

Je voulais crier mais

Je ne l'ai pas fait.


je suis resté sur place et ça

Est venu vers moi.

Il m'a mangé et je

Mort à mort.
