Found Poem
Breanna Styles He Longed He Loved He Lost Soldiers
Not good enough
Younger crowds
Not her cup of tea Light as air
Lovely with bright things in it, bright eyes,
Passionate mouth, ecstatic smile
Lavender hat Two minutes to four
Thin drops swarm like dew
The ripple of her voice
Hands plunged like weights, water glaring in my eyes His head rested back
Awfully glad
We’ve met before
A terrible mistake Don’t be rude
Tears of joy
Sunshine in the room
Beautiful shirts Can’t repeat the past
Of course you can
I’m going to fix everything
Just the way it was before.
The light of his love begins to fade
His temper cracked a little
An Oxford man
Like hell he is She never loved you,
Not good enough
That’s all over now, You want too much
Not her cup of tea
The main focus of my poem is the relationship between Gatsby and Daisy throughout the novel. The first stanza of the poem talks about Daisy not wanting Gatsby because he is going into the military and that she likes older men like Tom. The second stanza is talking about
Gatsby's love for Daisy and the fact that he is still obsessed with her. The third and fourth paragraph relate to the reunion between Gatsby and Daisy and how awkward it is. The fifth and sixth paragraph talk about the romance building between the two. In the last two stanzas things take a turn for the worst. Daisy no longer has interest in Gatsby because he has become unsafe and demanding.
The theme of my poem is love, focusing on Daisy and Gatsby. Love can be described as a strong feeling of affection and concern toward another person, but that’s not the case in the
Great Gatsby
. Relationships in Great Gatsby are not “loving”and tend to be more motivated by money than true love. Gatsby does love Daisy, but is in love with his dream version of Daisy from the first time they met. Daisy does not love Gatsby, but loves the material wealth that he provides.
