Author's Note: This is a poetic response to the novel, The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Nighttime. While overcoming the idea of living with his father--who has lied to him throughout his lifetime--Christopher receives a puppy, man's best friend, from his father as a bribe.
Best friend,
Someone so close,
Someone you tell everything,
Someone who will help you
Over obstacles.
Best friend,
The one you know,
Will always be there
Through whatever.
Best friend,
Always happy,
Always supportive,
Always excited,
For what you encounter,
Over your years of friendship.
Best friend,
Whether human,
Or a new dog,
Can fulfill the same,
Valuable role in your life.
Best friend,
Will always know that,
You will be there,
Through your incredible journey,
As best friends.
This is a good poem Allie, but it didnt have to do with the book again, unless you wanted it too :)
ReplyDeleteI really liked this poem and your use of reptition. One thing I would suggest is maybe to try and have a better rythem like trying to keep the same number of phrases per stanza. But i still think it was really good. Nicely done :)
