I don't think anyone is going to give you the writing assignments on here. That would technically be cheating.

I am going to make an assumption that the op wasn't looking for the specific writing topics, but rather wanted to know if you had to write a poem, research paper, or novel for the course. What the course consists of...

If that is the case, the Course Syllabus would be a helpful tool for this information:

The SL Eng composition is not that hard. It is doable. It may be time consuming. It took about 3 weeks for me to complete it. There are 5-6 written assignments. The essays will be graded in one to two days.

On an average 2-3 hrs. I am not a native English speaker, hence it took long time for me.

You could probably look over the CLEP study guide for a week or so and take the CLEP with ease.
