i LOVE MONKEYS,
YOU SHOULD TOO,
THEY ARE CUTE AND CUDDLEY,
AND ARE THE BEST.
YOU MAY HAVE OPPINIONS,
THAT DIFFER GREATLY,
FROM MINE,
BUT LISTEN HERE,
I'LL SHOUT A CHEER,
THAT WILL WARM THE HEARTS,
OF MONKEYS EVERYWHERE.
THERE THEY SWING,
THERE THEY MUNCH,
FROM THE TREES,
AND TO THE TRUNKS,
THERE THEY GO ALL JOLLY AND FAIR,
THEY PLAY THEIR GAMES BUT STILL,
LISTEN HERE,
MONKEYS FLY EVERY WHICH WHERE!!!!!

Um, I guess I get it: you like monkeys and wrote a poem about them. Let up on the exclamation marks, and turn off the caps lock. I feel as if you're shouting at me and TELLING me that I must like monkeys, which lessens the appeal I have for this poem considering I view monkeys as demon spawns. More imagery, please, and one thing you'll learn when preparing for the A.C.T, S.A.T. and other crap tests that you'll have to take and might as well learn now: don't say anything about accepting or letting others know you're aware of their opinions that might be different from yours, because they know it, and you know it too, so you'll make your writing more powerful if you don't mention anything about opinions and how they might differ. It's an unspoken fact.
