sonnet


SOCCER
The green grass, the strikers ready to strike,
The ball is kicked around, played with by you,
Everyone fights to win the game they like,
It will all happen on the field of view
Win till the last blow of the whistle or,
The final ticking second on the clock,
Soccer what a game, don’t make it a chore,  
When people cheat in the game just to block  
No reason to cheat, you have to really enjoy
Playing the game in on order to win, but
When you lose don’t lose all your hope and joy
Don’t give up it shows your amazingly glut
Determination for the game you love  
In order to show yourself you’re above.

Starting Columbine

I am starting the book Columbine by Dave Cullen it is based on the shooting that took place in Columbine in High school a very famous shooting to be exact, it was around the time when shootings in schools were happening way to often, soon the shootings died down but then the incident at columbine the biggest school shooting in history so far i am no to sure. But i am very sure that it will be great to read all about it and read all about a depressing event.

Poem that i wrote...............

What happens to a poem....

What happens to stars
after they lose their light
do they become  a big black
hole....
Maybe not all stars maybe,
just maybe they will make another bright star
so that it can have its chance to light up the night.

ART POST

                                                                        Raphael Sanzio
Born on April 6th 1483 in Urbino
Died on April 6th 1520 in Rome
Painted during the time of the High Renaissance.

What I love about Raphael Sanzio is how realistic the people in his drawings are you can see with some of the pictures that he draws with babies you can actually feel the weight of the chubby babies that he draws. You would call it the 3d paintings of back then or something like that. He especially liked to draw a plentiful amount of religious paintings.

In Raphaels marriage of the virgin his people are so much more realistic looking then the other paintings of the marriage of the virgin and even when compared to his teacher he beat his teachers drawing of the marriage of the virgin. All of the people in the painting are well painted and he drew in the details clearly and its as if they were there in real life.

What this painting means to me is that we don't have the same kinds of marriages as we did back then they were a little less celebrated from what i can tell. That is what this wonderful beautifully drawn painting means to me that there is a difference between the marriages back then and the marriages in the 21st century.

After reading all of Raphael's biography i want to go to the museums that have his paintings because of how amazing they are they have all kinds of meanings i just want to see them all i also want to read about some of the religious events that he drew so that i can get an even deeper understanding for his pictures like the one that i had with the picture shown above the virgins marriage.
