Meaning, I would write about an experience that meant something to me, and it would be represented by the sun. I would speak of circumstance around you which would be the sky, the rain, the clouds and how the weather felt representing how I feel or felt. I would add details about the brightness of the sun, the color of it, the glowing of it, and the rounding of it and compare the rounding of the sun to the roundess within my life. I hope this has helped, just some ideas and info of where the thoughts come from and representation. [ venom_97's advice column | Ask venom_97 A Question ]

But you can make the poem in 1st person, I believe, just...try to think what it would be like to be the sun, the thing that heats the earth, and gives us light
"Sunrise, sunset
It's time for things to be met
This side to rise and shine
Those sleepy heads will be upset, I bet
But they cannot complain
For for I don't sleep
If I did it would be vain
I have chores that I need to keep"
Wow XD That was probably the lamest poem I have ever wrote...but hey, I like rhyming something...
Anywho, ^^ Sometimes when you aren't even thinking about it, the poem will pop into your head. But don't over think about it, for it will totally screw not just you, but the poem up. Keep some paper with you, that way when you think about something, you can write it down ^^
Good luck, and I hoped I helped! XD Sorry about my lame example...but if it helps, hey!
