    1. You could have added his negatives personality. As well as you could have made each line flow, for example Thoughtful would related to caring. Open minded would have related to stand up.

  10. Limerick- David

    Although Davids humor might seem wry;
    Don't get him angry; or he'll give you the side-eye.
    He zips by on his wheelchair;
    while he has a brave attitude to flair.
    But actually, he is a GOOD guy!

    1. Actually you say? Not sure by your poem that i getbthevfeeling that he is not a good guy

    2. I liked how you rhymed with the words

  11. David-
    He is very cantankerous
    He gets very grumpy
    He can become anxious
    He acts punky
    He is sometimes rambunctious

    1. I love how you used uncommon words and really descriptive words in your poem, but I don't really think David is boisterous at all throughout the book, although, yes,he has an aggressive nature. I agree with the poem with David being anxious,and cantankerous, but not-so-much with 'punky', because as the words definition suggests, David isn't always 'sick', 'tired', or 'rotten'.

      Delete
    2. I like how you used very high end vocabulary, but I don't think you should use that many words that we are not fond of because I know that almost all of us, like myself, had to search up what cantankerous and rambunctious means.

      Delete
    3. You used nice high vocabulary however you started with he is for every sentence. You could have started with other words but I enjoyed reading your poem

    1. This poem is really descriptive and describes David perfectly!

      Delete
    2. Any positive words? Gives a one sided perspective on his personality

      Delete
    3. Me reading this makes me think that Daivd is a Bad person and he is a very negative person,but David also has some positive traits which you should have talked about, other than that the negative traits that you choose flows with the character, which is good :)

      Delete
    4. You could have added something a bit more positive instead of sort of neutral and negative because there is more to David, it isn't only how he has anger issues and he is mad all the time, he has some positives to him.

    5. ill keep all of this in mind

    1. Enjoyed reading your poem, but how does it relate to either characters David or Sean?

    1. He is... Whatbstyle is this ... Seems more like a common retell of words

      Delete
    2. You should have started with other words rather than he is all the tine

      Delete
    3. You should've explained more about him than using words to show his personality.

  15. Limerick poem about David:

    They don't understand!
    I am not agitated!
    I'm not divergent!
    Don't show me any pity,
    This chair is not who I am.

    3. your poem is very deep. i like it because you explain it in words that really fit in the poem. it is short and easy to read which makes it more interesting. it gets boring when you read a long poem so i prefer to read short poems like yours

      Delete
    4. I like you poem but i noticed at the lat part you said different is unequal I disagree with that because just cause you're different that does not mean that ur unequal

  18. Even towards people that are not his friends,
    Sean won't act resentful.
    But when he trys to be kind to one friend,
    To either he can be hurtful.

    Speaking of his friends,
    They have bad taste.
    Little do they realize,
    Sean is two faced.

    They may still be attached to Sean,
    Since Sean is jockular.
    That may be the reason,
    Why among his friends he's popular.

    But Sean needs to learn,
    Sooner or later he needs to pick a side.
    It's either Scott or David,
    Not both! Or the two sides will bicker and colide.

    Now it's a fight,
    Between David and Scott.
    Who will win now?
    Well that's Sean's decision…their's not.

    1. It's a good poem but when you make it so long people will get bored

    2. You have an amazing poem-the rhymes really stand out and prove points! I just love the way you captured one of Rebounds main problems in a poem. But, I'm not sure what type of poem it is though. However, there are just a few grammatical errors and spelling mistakes. Good work though!

    3. Nice peom!
      Is this a freestyle rhyming poem or a style we had to use

  20. Limerick Poem- David

    He started out with such temper
    But David surely wasn't the one to whimper
    His harsh passion was OUTRAGEOUS
    but he is
    very courageous

    2. I like how write "outrageous" in capitals. It really makes you want to read it with expression. It put life into your poem

  21. DIFFERENT

    I cannot walk
    I am much more different
    But that doesn't mean
    That I am unimportant
    There's no need to be TOO kind
    Or even too rude
    After all we're all humankind
    So treat us respectfully too

    2. This implies about David but you could have made it a bit more about being different in general instead of only about David.

  22. Tanka-Sean
    When David is near
    Pity is never present
    David is equal,
    For Sean, he sees no contrast
    between them at any moment

  23. David has a temper
    He must change for the better
    Or he will stay like that forever

  27. Limirick Poem

    He's David, brave and strong,
    sometimes he can be really wrong,
    he acts really rude but he's pathetic,
    David is good at being athletic ,
    David is tall and has legs that are long .

  28. David is so competitive
    he sometimes acts negative
    he's tall strong and fast
    and can go on a blast
    David can also get sensitive

    1. I like your poem but the last like kind of sounds like you just threw it in. Maybe you can say,"but he can also get sensitive"
