Poetry and a Fish

Well uni has started, new faces, new names and new places to remember and get used to. To try and feel more at home and to challenge myself I've jointed the creative writing society. We had to create a few poems last week using different techniques. The first one was a sonnet which has a rhyming scheme of AB AB CD CD EF EF GG and our theme was travel/nomad.
I got a little confused so my sonnet isn't really a sonnet but here is what I came up with, a humorous tale about a pompous man.

Today I went to the sea, yes I.

T’was bright, the sea, and the ship, oh aye.

I jumped on board, it rocked, I fell.

Onto that ship, upon the swell.

The waves crashed on, the gulls they called.

And I alone, got up, I crawled.

I jumped up fast, before we cast, and swore:

“That ship will be my last”

On Saturday I went to the O.T. conference run by S.O.T.L. and learnt how to do basket weaving - we were taught how to make a fish from willow:

Well that's it for now. =]
