Diego's Poem

My computer has not yet been fixed so I am sharing a laptop with my hubby. We pass it back and forth every half hour or so while sitting on the couch. The person without the computer gets control of the TV remote. It works quite well. Anyway, I mentioned in my previous post that I had a poem to post so I'm taking a few minutes away from homework to do just that. I generally do not write poems. This one was written as an example for a student that was having trouble understanding the instructions. He asked me for help. The instructions were to write a poem about an inanimate object and what life was like for that object. I wrote this sitting in the Commons at school in about 5 minutes. I'm not sure if I helped him or not, but I enjoyed the process. Hope you enjoy!


I stand in the corner
And wait quietly for you
I am loud
But without you no one can hear me
Many admire my style and grace
But only a few truly love me
Your touch makes me sing
Your rhythm keeps pace
Feel your heart through me
For I feel mine
Only through you
I am the soul of music
I am a drum
