Crying
by Solomon Gold
Takoma Park Middle School Student
You choke on flowing tears with blinded eyes,
When growth brings pain and loss calls pain to surge.
Yet, tears ring strong and every person cries.
So please allow your eyes this solemn urge.
Once weeping eyes are dried of silver tears,
A face emerges calm, through knowing pain.
Despair must come and go like days and years,
Now here for times both long and short again.
So rise and stand, prepared to see, embrace,
And greet the shining world with heart and soul.
You smile without contortions on your face.
Continue forth and search to find your goal.
For flurries ebb, you rise when they subside,
As triumph only comes once one has cried.
What type of poem is this?
Soliloquy
Elegy
Narrative
Sonnet

As triumph only comes once one has cried.
How do you know the type of poem?
It is sad and mournful. It has a somber rhythm.
It tells a story and has characters and events.
There is someone debating a decision.
It is praising something and has a problem.
