Question

In this poem the main character, Josh Bell, explains his love for his dreadlocks. Think about a quality that you have - it could be physical, like Josh’s hair or a talent that you have, a treasured object, even a belief that you hold dear. Then write about it, creating your own poem of at least 8 lines.



Remember, you want to communicate how much you value the trait or talent and use grandiose and inflated vocabulary.

Answer 1

Oh, how my soul swells with pride,
For this quality I cannot hide.
A talent that sets me apart,
A gift that ignites my inner spark.

With grandeur and splendor it unfolds,
A treasured object, a sight to behold.
A skill so rare, it shines divine,
A belief that holds me in its confine.

With fervor and passion, I embrace,
This quality I hold with grace.
Inflated with joy, my spirit soars,
For this trait, my heart adores.
