I Like to Run by Lyndsey P.


I like to run it makes me free
Sun in my face but I still see
Wind blows my hair I like the feel
When I’m running my life feels real

Road has no end that’s what I like
Speed past little kids riding bikes
Run so hard blood leaks from my heel
When I’m running my life feels real

I’ll run until the day turns night
A burning in my heart ignites
Run a race first place I will steal
When I running, my life feels real.

Lyndss,
I felt intrigued after this poem. I really enjoyed reading this, you used really well descripton of how you feel. I loved the way you made it seem so glorious yet real all at the same time. "run so hard blood leaks from my heals" would normally sound weird and gross but the way you put it worked great. The poem reminded me of those nike commercials when the woman are running and passing by all these different things but never stopping. AWESOME JOB.MWA!!!!

I really liked this poem. I like how it talks about running because i like to run. You used very good, desriptive lines. This poem made me feel happy. I liked the line " i like to run it makes me free sun in my face but i still see" I liked this line because i can really picture it. I can kind of relate because whenever you go running on a nice day , the sun is in your face. I thought this poem was good rhyming and a very good poem over all ! =)
