POEM STARTER

'Backwards'

Use this single word to inspire a poem.

Not easy

Failing

It’s not a choice

But trying again is


Trust

It’s not easy

But something you have to work towards


Fear

It’s something you face

But not something you have

to give power over you


Peace

It’s free

But it can’t exist

at the same time as anxiety


Crying

It’s not embarrassing

But you being strong

by letting the emotion out


Comfort

It’s sometimes hard to gain

But we take it for granted

when we do have it


Rain

It’s dark

But it brings the rainbow

right along with it


Forgiveness

It’s difficult

But don’t let your anger

hold you back


Life

It’s not easy

But it’s beautiful

all the same


So don’t be afraid to fail or to trust

Walk on the fear

Accept the peace that is waiting

Cry when you need to

Enjoy the comfort you have

Dance in the rain because you know what follows

Forgive and free yourself from resentment

And be grateful for the amazing life you have been given
