Pretend that you are Ponyboy. Write a poem that he might have written. You can be writing just after a certain event in the book has happened, or you can pretend that you are Ponyboy after the book is finished and are looking back at your life.
Ponyboy's poetry would be...
- about a subject he is interested in like one of the motifs we have been following: gold, sunsets, heroes, things are rough all over, etc.
- like the poetry of Robert Frost: short, rhyming, full of images from nature.
Type your poem up. Include a proper MLA heading.
Make sure your poem looks like a poem, not like a paragraph.
Do not center it; use left justify instead.
You may write more than one poem on the same paper.
Give your poem a title.
