Beowulf (Bay-oh-wolf)

Posted in Poems

Hello, I haven't been around because of school, tests, and other time-consuming activties. Anyway, I persuaded my mom to let me put up a post since I hadn't put one up since November 2nd. So now I've decided I would put up a poem I had written and see how you like it.

 

"Then Beowulf bethought the boasts of his men.

Called them to his side,

Set out to the dragon's huge stone tower

By the side of the sea.

When the army and Beowulf

Arrived at last,

Beowulf made a speech

That was royal, rich, and long,

He also beseeched his men

To come at his bidding.

Then Beowulf went in;

Into the beastly tower,

He tried to sneak

Up on the beast,

But the beast was already waiting.

So when Beowulf took the last turn,

The dragon was ready to send flaming fire

Down to meet Beowulf.

Beowulf fought bravely,

Then called out for his men,

But all of his men had fled,

All but one.

He came to Beowulf's side,

Fought victoriously,

But he could not save his master's life.

 

I hope it told you what the book is about, and also sounded poetic, I also hope you noticed a little alliteration.

 

Sir Richard
