It was upon a midnight dreary,
where I hungered weak and weary
That I began to see so cleary
That I can't write quite sincerely
As to show myself completely
Bare and open - so I sweetly
Try to do this as discreetly
As I possibly - can.
I'm old and young at the same time;
I lack the gift for using rhyme
at the drop of a dime, some of the time.
I have some passiong in my life
That sometimes cause me heavy sftrife
Like sewing, reading, drawing too;
playing with animals - children too.
I also have family that I love,
But peace does not rest as a dove
Above my house. It has troubles, see -
That cause me endless agony
But why remains a mystery
Even to me. And so, you see -
My life is quite a travesty
Of song and dance and sad romance
(And God forbid I take a chance
on things like that.) And here I sit
Trying to rile you with my wit,
But now you just want me to stop.
And so I do.
And let you off.
Author notes
umm well i guess this is about me, it's really hard to write a poem describing yourself (at least for me it is). Don't worry, the next poem I write will actually be good and use imagery and stuff like that. lol.
me llamo Grace K., btw.

Very good with the rhyming, and it is very clever in the first stanza!
It was upon a midnight dreary,
where I hungered weak and weary
That I began to see so cleary
That I can't write quite sincerely
As to show myself completely
Bare and open - so I sweetly
Try to do this as discreetly
