Welcome to the Kenwood English IV Poetry Blog!

Students from Kenwood's Honors English IV classes have written poems inspired by the poems, poets and poetic forms that they've studied during this term's poetry unit. Some students wrote Ballads and Sonnets while others responded to the work of poets like e.e. cummings, Sylvia Plath and Rainer Marie Rilke. Many poems are profound, heartfelt and deeply insightful. Others are fun and lighthearted. But, all of the poems illustrate the students understanding and appreciation of the genre of poetry. We invite you to read this work and offer your comments. Thank you.

"Because I do love you"

Why do I feel that I love you so much
Maybe it is the look that is in your eyes
Or can it be how I feel when we touch
When your around the sun shines oh so bright

No not only physical attraction
Baby your love cause a strong reaction
Deep down in my body I feel the burn
Hoping and wishing that I get my turn
At your heart that I feind for so dearly
Could this be true? how im feeling, really.

When we kiss my soul explodes into flames
Your love cures all of the sorrow and pain
I just had to tell you how you make me
Stay in my life for an eternity
From me to you I will give you my all
for your love im willing to take that fall

Into your arms where I will always lay
To have your love, theres no price I wont pay

Inspired by "My Mistress Eyes Are Nothing Like The Sun" Sonnet By:William Shakespeare
