Original:
The bulging creamy eyes
Maybe hundred feathers sticking to her spine
Looking at the small string instrument
Hanging on the neck
The feet resting down
Barely touching the smooth tile floor.


Paradelle:
The bulging creamy eyes
The bulging creamy eyes
Maybe a hundred feathers sticking to her spine
Maybe a hundred feathers sticking to her spine
The creamy feathers sticking a hundred
Maybe eyes bulging to her spine.

Hanging on the neck
Instrument looking at the small neck
Hanging on the string.


The feet resting down
The feet resting down
Barely touching the smooth tile floor
Barely touching the smooth tile floor
Barely feet touching the down tile
The floor resting smooth.


The creamy floor sticking
Maybe the neck touching a small string
Hundred bulging feet hanging
Barely eyes at the tile
Instrument resting down
Her feathers on the spine looking at the smooth.


The author's comments:
This is another poem I wrote in a writing summer-camp in fourth grade. This is a Paradelle, and I thought I would show the original poem as well. The first part is the original, while the other stanzas are the paradelle, and it oddly ended up a little graphic.
