What is an Ode?
“An ode is a lyric poem that is written to praise a person, event, or object” (Sembre, 2017).
Brainstorming:
Subject: anyone can write an ode
• Find something you are compassionate about, love, or hate
• List adjectives that provide a vivid description
• Make a personal connection of how the subject has impacted you
• Grapple with your writing and have fun
Rhyming structures (if not irregular ode):
• ABAB “the last words of every fist and third line rhyme and the last word in every
second and fourth line” (Sembre, 2017)
• ABABCDECDE uses in John Keats text
Final draft:
Decorate and change font for the publishing
Wonderful memories
fill come my mind.
The strength of a thousand men
to put together
an enormous bunk bed
where it does not belong.
Mask, gloves, gagging, giggling
action of removing
twenty-five days of cat shit,
in six litter boxes
kind of friend.
The cheerful voice
when I’m miles away,
neighbor,
who will run to your house
to open the door
for your son,
who is stuck outside and crying.
The neighbor,
I cherish,
with all my heart and soul.
I will do whatever they desire,
in their time of need.
They have given me sanity,
and hope
for a world that is so secluded.
Blessed,
Thankful,
Grateful,
am I
for the neighbor.
