Here is an example of a two poem:

The Moon and the Sun

Moon: I twirl around the earth all night,
Softly shining with pale light.
I'm the queen of the quiet night sky,
Creating a peaceful lullaby.

Sun: I rise from the east in glory,
Filling the earth with warmth and energy.
The world wakes up with my cheery light,
Giving everyone a brand new sight.

Moon: I'm the light that soothes the soul,
A quiet sparkle to make the whole.
A gentle presence to guide your way,
Always watching until the break of day.

Sun: I burn the sky with my golden flame,
Pushing back the darkness with my name.
My light brings life to everything below,
Pushing back the shadows with a powerful glow.

Moon: I'm the mystery that you will never know,
A quiet reminder to always grow.
A million secrets tucked inside,
A world of dreams in which to hide.

Sun: I'm the strength that you can't deny,
The power to make everything come alive.
My light is the ultimate sign,
That everything will turn out just fine.

Together: We are the Sun and the Moon,
Two opposite sides of the same tune.
We bring balance to the earth below,
Light and dark in a magical flow.
