The Beautiful Woods - Narrative Poetry

 My first try at writing a narrative poetry


The Beautiful Woods

We were playing hide and seek,
My friends and I;
I took a little peek
And saw a butterfly.

It flitted here and there,
Chasing it went we,
Entering the woods without a care
We ran in merry glee.

Soon we came upon some monkeys
Chattering and swinging.
We collected berries in our hankies
And relished them that evening.

It was such a bliss
Looking at the trees we stood
We made a solemn promise
To visit more often these woods.


Thank you

As I clad myself in a raincoat assuming to be totally drenched by the end of the safari, the heavy rain became ...

Skye was a person who always got into trouble but completed his work on time nonetheless. Piper was an extrovert; she loved talking to others and making new friends. Jade was a girl who was always online; she loved dressing up in bright and vibrant clothes. All three of them were facing some or the other problems. Some way or another they got into trouble.   One day, the three of them went to the forest for a normal walk. What was supposed to be a peaceful walk turned into a disaster. Soon they reached a waterfall; even though it seemed like a normal waterfall, it was not. They had heard that whoever went inside the cave near the waterfall never came out but still they entered and what they saw was incredible. There was a hotel inside it with a DJ and an arcade; the best thing was all of it was free. ...
