My mom told me to post my poem for my language assignment. I love doing poetry because it makes me think and to realise the deeper meaning of the poem. For this assignment, we had to put our feelings of being a Canadian and what does it mean to be a Canadian. I hope that you will like my poem and also, feel free to comment and give suggestions to my poem. It is called "I live in a country called Canada..."
I live in a country called Canada.
A place where we can live in freedom.
To be able to live in our own kingdom.
To believe in our own beliefs,
To help others who needs relief.
I live in a country called Canada.
In our hearts, it's in a special place.
Even though we are of different race,
No one is different from each other,
We all respect one another.
I live in a country called Canada.
Our famous maple syrup.
Our Mounties stepping on their stirrups.
Our maple leaf fly.
Our soldiers dead make people cry.
I live in a country called Canada.
It's not just a rag,
It's our own flag.
It's a symbol for all Canadians,
That separates us from the Americans.
I live in a country called Canada.
I love Freedom.
I love Peace.
I love our country,
Canada...
I hoped that you will be able to understand my feelings for Canada and also the real meaning of this poem. It took me hours to think of such short poem but I hope that it has powerful message.
I LOVE CANADA <3
Saman, it's sound good. But I think you have to explain it to me....mom
ReplyDeleteSaman, it's time to go to bed. Tomorrow you have a test on Chinese....mom
ReplyDeleteSaman, I love it, it was so touchy! Fine piece of work!.....Dad
ReplyDeleteSaman,
ReplyDeleteI think you have explained of all the benefits of being a Canadian. Any negative side? To become a Canadian, you have to leave a place where you were born (HK).
BTW, I agreed with your Dad, you have done a good job.

Sam: I understand your feeling. I found that, the first 4 paragraphs, each 2nd and 3rd sentence with same rhyming in pronunciation. It's quite hard. Well done. Florence
ReplyDeleteSam: Translatiion of your poem in Chinese:
ReplyDelete我住在一個國家稱為加拿大。
一個地方,我們能夠生活在自由。
為了能夠生活在自己的王國。
要相信我們自己的信念,
幫助別人誰需要救濟。
我住在一個國家稱為加拿大。
在我們心中,它是在一個特殊的地方。
即使我們有不同的種族,
沒有人各有不同,
我們都互相尊重。
我住在一個國家稱為加拿大。
我們著名的楓糖漿。
我們的皇家騎警加強他們的馬鐙。
我們的楓葉飛。
我們的士兵死使人們哭了。
我住在一個國家稱為加拿大。
這不只是一個破布,
這是我們自己的旗幟。
這是一個象徵,所有加拿大人,
我們分開的美國人。
我住在一個國家稱為加拿大。
我喜歡自由。
我愛和平。
我愛我們的國家,
加拿大...
