an ode poem this not the a great one, however it's a good example of how one is written,

an Ode It's a poem written to praise or glorify a person or something.
Can be about a person, a cat, a butterfly, anything you wish, just write it to them about them. Most are done in rhyme, however as you can tell below, I struggle with it, so just do your best... I will judge it more on the quality then the rhyme. "But try to Rhyme" Example below, but, I will be honest I am not great with these, You may want to search for a few, that will do more justice for them then I can, this is to just give you an idea. They can be written in form below or in stanzas.




There are two types of odes based on the classical poets Pindar and Horace, respectively called the Pindaric and Horatian ode. If you want to stay traditional, Pindaric odes best celebrate something of public importance, where Horatian odes are more personally inclined, but even the great are guilty of wandering from these traditions a little, so it's not set in stone at all.

Ode: 1. A lyric poem characterized by lofty feeling, elaborate form, and dignified or elevated style; a form of stately and elaborate lyrical verse. 2. A lyric poem usually marked by exaltation of feeling and style, varying length of line, and complexity of stanza forms. 3. A lyrical poem praising or glorifying a person, place, or thing.

Lovers

When lovers love
and doves fly.
Do they receive
the gift of wings
in the sky?
Or do they receive
them here on Earth?
Then to Heaven
they descend
two souls
joining as one.
This I do not know
So, I can not deny.
Lovers who believe
then soul mates
you shall be
Transcending
into the sky.
For lovers who
love true
never doubt
the magic
in your eyes.
Spread your wings
and soar
through the skies
least you forget
how to fly.
