7th Grade Poetry Portfolio: Villanelle

 

I always need to read.

I read every day,

Books are something that I need.

 

A book is like a retreat,

I get taken far away,

I always love to read.

 

I always have a list for me

of books I’ll read someday.

Books are something that I need.

 

There are many good books I like to reread

Like a song you like to replay.

I always need to read.

 

I read with speed,

I finish books faster that way,

Books are something that I need.

 

When I read, I feel freed,

I can feel my stress melt away.

I always need to read,

because books are something that I need.
