Old age should burn and wave at closing of day; Rage, rage against the dying of the lightDo not go gentle into that good night

Tried to tutor two tooters to toot.
Said the two to their tutor,Is it harder to toot or To tutor two tooters to toot?
Wise Words Ward Off WrathWise words ward off wrath, whilst foolish words fuel the
fires of feud.Pleasant words are persuasive and pave the path for peaceHarsh words hurt and harbor hatred.Soft words sow soothing seeds.Unkind words kindle the fires of rage.Vulgar comments violate and vilify.Gossip strips and tears friendships apart.Insulting words instigate insurrection and infighting.Nagging negates, complicates and conflagrates:Zip your mouth when your mind is not in a Good gear.

Helplessly Hopingby Stephen Stills, Gold Hill
Helplessly hopingHer harlequin hovers nearbyAwaiting a wordGasping at glimpsesOf gentle true spiritHe runs, wishing he could flyOnly to trip at the sound of good-bye
Wordlessly watchingHe waits by the windowAnd wonders At the empty place insideHeartlessly helping himself to her bad dreamsHe worriesDid he hear a good-bye? Or even hello?
They are one personThey are two aloneThey are three togetherThey are for each other
Stand by the stairwayYou'll see somethingCertain to tell you confusion has its costLove isn't lyingIt's loose in a lady who lingersSaying she is lostAnd choking on hello

9. I strode down by the sea shore; The soft sensuous wind smothered my face.The ravaging waves rushed to my feet; The ocean’s oysters refused to open their mouth.In the distance I detect a dolphin; It jumped with joy then jetted away.Boats bobbed on the beautiful sea; Towels tainted the beach’s territory.Chairs crowded the coast line;People polluted the Pacific’s ocean.But soon, the sun slid into a sunset,Everyone retreated to the road and retrieved their cars The day at the beach has ended.

or assonance.Must be between10-12 lines.Remember: you can use alliteration
