Oakland Poem/Pic

When we went to Oakland we had to take pictures of different letters that spelled a word to describe what we thought of Oakland Cemetery.  We put the letters together and made it into a word.  Then I had to make a poem involving that word.  Here is my picture and poem:


Oakland Cemetery

Many bodies
Many lives
Lots from war that died
Emotional stones
Lots of graves look as if they were cloned
 Birds flying around like angels
Staring down at coffins
Inside, bodies mangled
Death all around
If you are wondering alone, there is no sound
Old stories and tales all over
Frozen men and women
Big, strong mausoleums 
So tall and beautiful
I could not wait to see them
Potters field directly ahead
Many dead bodies
Not even in a coffin or a bed
Spirits arising and watching us all
Very freaky
Oakland Cemetery’s history is very misty
- Josh Miller
