The Melody

by Elsie aged 12

I hear this song sung today,
It sounds not too far away,
I follow the song sung gracefully,
I follow the song sung flowingly,
I follow the song sung harmonised,
I follow the song sung today.

    Nice poem. Think about what the poem actual looks like, it’s shape.
    I’ve changed the order a little bit, so that the last line has a rhyme-y feel. It’s a useful way to end a poem that doesn’t rhyme. Just rhyme the last couple of lines to finish it off. Shakespeare used to do it. A long speech in blank verse, finished with a rhyme.
