POEM STARTER

Write a poem about a minor inconvenience.

This may help you articulate nuanced emotions that are not outright exaggerated and over the top.

Marco

The train is blaring its horn, angrily

But the sound only puts me at ease

It’s a familiar sound

Like a lullaby, ringing out

It tells me I’m safe and can sleep


But where are you now?

Nowhere I have found

And yet, I feel you’re not far


In the smallest of towns

I wish your voice sounded loud

as the train, so I could know where you are
