Wands Swishing Softly

a Harry Potter Poem

Wands Swishing Softly

By Melisa Lynn

 

Wands swishing softly through the air

Enemies of Voldemort beware

 

He is not a man kind of heart

His powerful dark magic sets him apart

 

He will kill you without thought

Faster than any broomstick you’ve ever bought

 

Remember the murmurs coming from your mouth

Death Eaters will find you by word of mouth

 

I am Harry Potter, undesirable number one

I know what it’s like to be on the run

 

I died with a simple swish of a wand

It was that easy to move into the world beyond

 

Wands swishing softly through the air

Enemies of Voldemort beware

Something I had to do for school.

A fairly simple rhyme scheme and an uninspired topic. I mean, it's a decent start if you've say, never written poetry before, but I'd really think you could do much better if you chose an original topic. Then again, judging from your note, you might not have had much choice at all, so as for the actual content - it's technically correct, and you don't make any real errors in your writing. All of my problems are just with the concept.

I agree with you, i've definitely written much better. It's just that i had requirments i had to fulfill. if i'd had none, then this would have been much better. thank you for your thoughts. :)

A very good poem. The Henry Potter series of movies allowed us to wonder and wish. I like the description and the the strong ending. Good to fear witchcraft and the unknown. Thank you for the excellent poetry.
