"Free" Verse

"Free" Verse - James Li (Challenger School, Seventh Grade)

I sit here in solitude 

I can’t seem to create

A free-verse that sounds

As good as the others write

I cannot help but to believe 

That the flowers below are mocking me

And so is that raven flying by,

He’s eyeing me with disdain

I’m stuck here, with nowhere to go

Until I finish a poem I must stay
