Woah.....you're kind of totally awesome. I haven't written any poems (that I'd considered done for myself instead of just a school project...well, one last night, but it's rather short.) in a few years, so the more recent ones aren't really worth showcasing....anyway, digressing aside, it's quite obvious why you took first in the Literature Competition. Your vibrant word choice also makes the poems very interesting just to read, and the images evoked so clearly make contemplation even more fun I'm kind of feeling like writing a poem myself now xD

Bumping this thread in the hope that someone still cares to read the poems I compose.
Here's another poem of mine. It is the second most recent and also my second favourite poem out of all the ones I've written thus far, so I hope you guys will like it as much as I do. The Assassination of Julius Caesar Year written: Early 2011 Inspired by Shakespeare's "Julius Caesar" play in my English Literature class (which is based on true historical characters and events), I decided to write a poem for the assignment which our teacher gave us. It describes the murder of Julius Caesar by the Liberatores - a moment which I envision as dramatically shocking and thrilling.
The Assassination of Julius Caesar
And if you're actually interested in remaining updated, I've saved the best poem in my opinion for last. If you provide feedback on any/all of my poems, especially "The Assassination of Julius Caesar", I would feel grateful and encouraged to post more of my work in the future, including the #1 poem I just talked about!

I'm impressed. Julius Caesar was my favorite Roman general. <3 His influences in Roman government are quite clear as he played a deciding niche in the gradual transformation of the Roman Republic into the Roman Empire. The poem has a lovely beat. The gentle flow, while describing a brutal assasination, fits well with your prior work.
