Sofi- An Around the Circle Poem

So the other day in our school's creative writing club, we did this as a warm up. This would be such a fun to do with one, two, or many friends. It's so easy and so fun! You get really cool ideas and thoughts from the things you write. :) (sadly, this was the day both Sam and Rachel weren't at club)

How to:
It's nothing difficult, as we literally did this as a warm up for the club it wouldn't be so difficult, and all you need is a paper and writing tool (i.e. pencil or pen, maybe a quill and ink, feather pens, maybe you use crayons or water color to write). Anyway, that's all!

Basically what you do:
Each person, on their own piece of paper, will start by writing one word, phrase or sentence. This paper is then passed to the next person, depending on how you want the circle to flow. Let's say you pass the papers to the person to your right, the person to your left will give you theirs, and this happens all around the group. You will read the sentence above and write down another sentence. You keep doing this as all the papers go around the circle. (if none of this makes sense I'm sorry, you may be able to google something like this).

Here's the poem that I started (meaning I wrote the first line, and then someone else wrote the next, and then the person next to them wrote the next sentence, and so on)

(also I did different fonts for each person)

Little drops drip from notes,
they whispered their secrets
spell binding one another in such a vicious game of lies,
breaking the hearts of many
and taking the life from belief
Singing hymns without faith, confessions without meaning
but I always believed in you
and I always fell for your mind
the drops continued to drip

Wasn't that so cool!? Every single line had it's own amazing little meaning, but each line came together perfectly. :) 

I really hope some of you guys try this out, because it was sooo cool to see what other people had to say about certain lines to make it work with the theme of the poem.

Thanks guys, happy writing!

Sam- No Matter What, Original Poem- 1-12-16

No Matter What

This life of mine is a mess
Destroyed by so much stress

I have no hope to get away
But they only care that my writing was astray

I want to close myself down
My complete happiness will never be found

If I continue to be this way
I won't even make it to May

It's January now, and it has taken a lifetime
This is the only thing I can think to do, this rhyme

There is no purpose in doing something you hate they say
But no matter what, you have to go to school today



Hope you guys like this original poem, it took a lot to tell you about how I feel.
- have a good day guys, love Sam
