POEM STARTER
Imagine you are a young child attempting rhyming poetry for the first time.
Consider the language you use to reflect the child’s age. Also try to think about what would be an important topic for them to write about.

I feel like a little kid
Writing topics too grown
I can’t wait to learn to drive
I miss you when I’m home
My soul feels aged
Why can’t I be older
I want to walk down the aisle
And cry on your shoulder
Someone to call me mine
That would be nice.
Lord why am I like this
I’m certain what I want
But not in this moment.
Little me thought I could plan it all out.
Turns out I can, but it won’t truly wor...

Roses are red, violets are blue, the honey is sweet but so are you.
Ring a ring a Rosie, a pocket full of daisies.
A tissue a tissue we all fall down.
The cows are in the meadow eating buttercups, a tissue a tissue we all stand up.
Hey diddle diddle, the cat played the fiddle and the cow jumped over the moon.
The little boy laughed to have such fun and the dish ran away with the spoon.
Twi...
When I go outside, the first thing I see
Is my trampoline right behind the old tree
I climb the tree often, it makes me feel tall
Never too high, I'm afraid I might fall
Sometimes in the summer I'll play hide and seek
And meet all my friends at the end of the creek
I know all the spots, so I always win
Until it gets dark and my mom says “come in”...
_My cat sat on my mat,_
_He was chewing on my crayons, like he was… like he was…_
“Sara! What rhymes with crayons?”
“What?” Sara called down the stairs
“What, rhymes, with, craynon’s?” Mike yelled, pausing at the end of every word.
“Umm. Spray on’s? I don’t know.”
“No, that doesn’t fit! Something else!”
Mike heard the pounding on the stairs as Sara trundled down.
“What do you want Mikel?” ...
I wish I was my dad.
He can swim very fast!
And I can’t, that’s sad.
Every time I swim, I’m the last.
I also want to be like my mom,
She’s nice because she feeds my fish Tom.
And she gives me food every morning, night, and even when I go to school.
Isn’t she cool!!!
Also, I love my dog Blake.
He makes moves like he was in stage. Haha
He’s funny.
I like to play outside while it’s sunny.
With m...
I like the clouds
I think we should thank them more
When I see them it is never a doubt
That the sun will shine again soon
We are not facing doom
We are not in a small tomb
We are in this big wide earth
Where the sun will shine for all its worth
Thank the clouds
Without them there would be no earth...
