    Haiku
    I read a couple of Haiku's online and wrote one my self and posted it on Wiki so I would love everyone's feed back! I also took the survey at the bottom of the 13th day page about haiku's. I have learned a lot about haiku's and have grown to love to read them.

    Day 23 and 26
    For these days you had to listen and read two poems. I though that these poems were very good and very visual. The one thing I would have changed with the day 26 poem was the length because it was very long and the topic because it not topic that most people would find interesting. Also the writer sounded very much like she was singing the poem which was not only distracting but I felt also took away the whole sentimental feeling of the poem.

    Day 1
    This day I had to watch a video and write about how I felt. Here's my poem...

    Rained On:
    I felt refreshed
    As the water sprinkled, no poured down on me
    As it came calm and sweet and then hard and powerful

    I felt strong
    Knowing that the water was there to help
    To help with the pain, the growth, and my beauty

    I felt happy
    This is what is going to help me I said, help me become me
    Help me relax, and have the strength to wait for the harsh summer sun

  2. msg Lady message posted Lady Lady is a word Not an attitude or a lifestyle, just a word So if I’m not a lady, then I’m simply …
    Lady
    Lady is a word
    Not an attitude or a lifestyle, just a word
    So if I’m not a lady, then I’m simply not a specific word
    In fact I’m Meghan, there isn’t an “L,” “D,” or “Y” in that name
    “L” for lazy, late
    “A” for attitude, ambivalent
    “D” for disrespectful, disobedient
    “Y” for young, youthful
    A lady doesn’t sound so dainty and sweet anymore does it?
    Well I’m certainly not one.
    For one thing, you can’t tell me I’m late
    I’m always on time
    See I arrive ON the TIME that I show up.
    It’s my clock and my schedule
    So you don’t get to decide whether I’m late or not, I do
    And lazy, well I work…
    It’s just easier to watch you do it.
    And I make decisions
    I’m not wish washy like some people I know
    Who are always changing their mind on what they want to do, who they like, what they stand for
    I know what I stand for
    I have two solid feet on the ground.
    I just happen to take a long time to come to a decision.
    And I respect you whether you deserve my respect or not
    And I listen to you
    Even when you think I’m not,
    I’m subconsciously listening
    And probably won’t remember what you said five minutes later
    And I am not talking back
    In fact I’m talking facing forward
    So don’t call me rude or ill-mannered,
    You provoked me.
    Don’t say, “I don’t like your attitude”
    Because I don’t like yours either
    So I guess we can agree on one thing.
    But even if people happen to call me a lady
    I won’t hide in shame like most people.
    I will stand loud and proud
    This person who had the nerve to call me a lady thinks I’m:
    Lazy, tardy, sassy, ambivalent, impolite, disobedient, and young.
    Well I sort of have to agree with them…
    In fact I think I’m the closest thing you get to be lady like.
