You may disagree with whatever example I come up with. Since I don't have the time to read 30 poems now to look for an inversion, it may be a while. But I've posted my own poem.
Seeing as you don't seem to recognize what an inversion is at all, I am going to table this part of the discussion until you do a little research. We can return to it later with examples if the need arises.
