Sadie asked in Arts & HumanitiesPoetry · 8 years ago

Is this a good poem?!?!?!?

An Ode to Oklahoma

Swirling winds which destroy homes

Winters that turn people purple

Summers that can cook an egg

Neither a hill nor mountain in site

That is Oklahoma

Learning how to ride a bike

Losing a first tooth

Not needing floaties in the pool

Receiving a pet dog

That is Oklahoma

Never seeing family

Crying during tornados

Inheriting seven painful stitches

Being trapped in a boring town

That is Oklahoma

Learning to read and write

Fireflies shoot across the night sky

Not needing mom to tie your shoes

Receiving a first best friend

That is Oklahoma

My time there was good and bad

My childhood has no regrets

My family still remembers it

My memories will last forever

My home will always be Oklahoma

Do you have any corrections or notes for me?
