Jamaris....jamaris is the name
for that my mother and father is to blame
To me it means to conquer all pain
To me it means fighting for what I want , taking the fame
The day of my birth June 9th 99'
Is better than his and yours combined
Some say I'm as dark as night
But the real me comes out in the light
All my nicknames from my past
I used them all but they left a cast
On my hopes and dreams that's moving fast.
But this unique name isn't ghetto or nice
My name is an angel taking flight
Hearing my name is like sun shine after 30 days of rain
and for those who don't like me they are the ones to blame
Jamaris, part means joy part means mud
Saying my name Is earth crying joy till it floods
I use the will of a warrior a will of my own
When I make up my mind the gates has flown
And this reason of this Is because of my name
Jamaris is great, the biggest flame.
Pride in who I am is what I represent.
To help others and be the best I can is why I was sent

ReplyDeleteI like how you take extreme pride in your name. I don't see how the title relates, but this is a great poem.

ReplyDeleteI like how you show pride in your name
ReplyDeleteSeems like you have quite an aura of motivation in your poem. That's a great thing, by the way. In your first line, the second time you write your name needs to be capitalized as well. I loved all the similes you used.
ReplyDeleteJamaris,
ReplyDeleteI really like how your syntax and ability to change the order of your sentences to fit with your rhyme scheme. This is a great skill. Green up the good work!
You used a great rhyme and compared to Noah's Ark and Batman.
ReplyDeleteYour references to angels and warriors
ReplyDeleteIt's cool how you used the expression "an angel taking flight," and then ended the poem with "to help others and be the best I can is why I was sent." Awesome relation between the two lines.
