Inside-Outside poem
Justification
This artefact contains the first poem I wrote in English and the goal was to get inspired by three things in the outside world and then link them with the "inner world". To give a proper background, I should say that I am no poet even in Czech... So don't expect anything awesome.
This is my poem:
In the sky is a cloud
in a shape of a bee.
On the ground a stone
resembling old brie.
The hand looks so old,
like bark on a tree.
Standing right here
I am lost in the sea.
The time flies so fast,
where does it flee?
Am I too late
waiting for thee?
Reflection
As always, I was surprised how easy it was. Don't take me wrong, I don't think at all that it a masterpiece, but I always felt that writing even a mediocre poem is something I could never manage. Under any circumstances. So I am really proud now. To get on a more critical side, however, I know it seems more like a Czech poem rather than an English one which is more often rather rhyme-less and the key feature is the rhythm. Never the less, I did it and tried one more thing with my non-native tongue!
