Background music and tone.

http://youtu.be/CNfTy_2R_Jg
This poem style is yearning, seems that the writer remembered his good friend and he wanted to tell everyone what does a good friend mean. The writer expressed his own feeling in this poem.  So for this poem, I can not use the lively and happy background music to illustrate writer's opinion, but I could use some background music that did not have very fast rhyme and has some lyric parts in it in order to show author's dismay and yearning about his good friends.  Harry Potter's background music is my best choice. There are many background music show the lyric and yearning. So I prefer to use this one.

What is a friend

What Is A Friend

© Barbara M. Zellner
Published on October 2007

A good friend is someone
who cares about you
they are someone who will be
there when you're down

A good friend is someone
who's willing to help you
when you are in a little trouble
that's hard to get out

A good friend is someone
who you can talk to
and trust with your problems
in not telling anyone else

A good friend is someone
who will come and stop
you from taking your life
and sit down to show you
all of the good things
to live for

That's What A Good Friend Is

Found poem

Next day would be the funeral
Mom and I got everything ready for Funeral
Dad went to hospital to take Kellyanne back.
Williamson family was not ratter.

Mom bought new black suits,
We went to the funeral 
Decorated it with flowers.
Then priest came and talked 
About the procedure.

I wanted to tell Kellyanne that
I did make a funeral for them. 
she would have a big smile
She would never be sick again.

Waited for people arriving was boring
I was nervous that how many people came.
Also nervous about Kellyanne's sick.
I got afraid about people won't turn up.
I became impatient

Boarding students make up
Half of the school community
At Cheshire Academy.
Living on campus helps students
To learn
And grow in a positive community.
Five single-gender dormitories on campus,
Not only for student
But also for faculty members and their families.
Each dorm differs in design.
The majority of the room are
Designed for two students
Best way for preparing college.

Poem review

Over hill, over dale,
Thorough bush, thorough brier,
Over park, over pale,
Thorough flood, thorough fire!
I do wander everywhere,
Swifter than the moon's sphere;
And I serve the Fairy Queen,
To dew her orbs upon the green;
The cowslips tall her pensioners be;
In their gold coats spots you see;
Those be rubies, fairy favours;
In those freckles live their savours;
I must go seek some dewdrops here,
And hang a pearl in every cowslip's ear. 


This is a poem from Shakespeare, it talks about the fairy queen daily life and how could the main character serve the Fairy Queen. Which the main character endures many difficulties, goes everywhere in order to find the cowslip for the fairy. This works as a poem due to its rhyme and free verse. If you look at every end word, you may figure out that every word sounds the same.  And some of the sentences have both relations and same pronunciation, for example. Over hill, over dale. Over park, over pale.  These sentences separate into the different places of the poem, but at the same time, they convict the same thing that shows how hard the main character goes everywhere. Even though the author, Shakespeare did not use many sentences to write on it, but it gives the readers a feeling about the difficulty author faces towards when he serves the fairy. Especially this sentence, "Swifter than the moon's sphere". Shakespeare uses only several sentences to draw a character who goes through many difficulties in order to finish his duty. And the free verse, for the poem, it does not only limiting using the comma and period to separate the sentence. In this poem, he used an exclamation point and colon to separate the sentences, which make the whole poem become easier to understand and more connections in the poem that make the poem look more compact, which let the readers have more interests to read it. The reason why I love this poem due to its content and bright style, when I find out that this poem is from Shakespeare, I do not think it is fun, on the other hand, I think it is boring and hard to read. However, after I finish reading this poem, I do not think it is hard to understand what does Shakespeare want to tell us. Also, the content is interesting, he describes a person who faces many problems and difficulties, then he describes the clothing of the fairy and what does he want to serve for the fairy. It is an interesting poem and I wish everyone in our class can read it, and after you read it, you will find out that Shakespeare does not only want to describe the screen of the fairy, but also he describes a love between the average people and the fairy, in the last sentence, I must go seek some dewdrops here, and hang a pearl in every cowslip's ear. In this sentence, I could image a screen that a young person is looking hard for the dewdrops in order to show the fairy how good he is, which is amazing that the sentence tells me, even though he just uses only several words, but the imagination is the best part in it.
