This series of writing is made of for different forms of literature, free-verse poem, expository paragraph, haiku, and picture poem on the topic "Friendship." These are based on the thoughts that I had recently while reading books and watching movies. I hope you like them!
8-sentence expository paragraph
Everyone has a different aspect about friendship. Some people say that friends are the ones we spend the most time together, while some say that friends are the ones that stays with us during hard times. In fact, there have been many quotes by famous people who left their definition about friendship. For instance, one greatly respected Chinese writer said, “Sometimes you put walls up not to keep people out, but to see who cares enough to break them down.” This writer thought that friends are the ones who care about us. Moreover, in the story “Winnie the Pooh,” one of the characters quotes,”If you live to be 100, I hope I live to be 100 minus 1 day, so that I never have to live without you.” The writer of this story thinks that friendship is everything. Again, everyone has a different aspect about friendship. There is no right or wrong answer, and I think that we can truly respect friendship when we can find our own meaning in friendship
Free verse poem
Possibilities
Friendship is like a piece of soft clay
with a gentle touch by the tip of our fingers,
It changes shape,
to its endless possibilities.
With the beating heart and blushing cheek,
it turns into love.
With the comforting words,
it turns into heart-warming medicine.
If we use our own original touch,
friendship will transform
into endless possibilities
Haiku
New start
Cherry blossom blows
The final school year begins
New friendship begins
Picture poem
The Balcony

This is where a young lady stood.
Where Juliet stood.
This is the place where she prayed.
Where she prayed for unfortunate love.
This is where she listened,
and heard the sound of bushes howling.
This is where she looked down,
and saw her only destined love.
This is the place where she waited,
waited for Romeo to climb up a tree to see her.
This is where she promised,
promised her only love to stay with her forever.
This is the one and only balcony.
Where forever lasting friendship in the name of love began.
Self assessment:
1. This was my first time writing a multi-genre essay, so I looked at other students' blogs to get the picture of what I was doing. Therefore, I might be lacking some originality. I will try other techniques later on if I have the chance.
2. This was also my first time writing a haiku, and I used the word "cherry blossoms. " I don't think any of us can understand this. The school year in most Asian countries begin in March, when the cherry blossoms start blowing. I used it to express the beginning of new experience.
3. I had a hard time trying to fit in a writing related to Romeo and Juliet. I managed to somehow use it in the picture poem, but I think some people might find it difficult to feel the same way as I do about endless friendship being love.
