POEM STARTER

Take the first line from a book and use it to begin a poem.

Try to choose a book at random and challenge yourself to write the poem around it, instead of planning to choose a book based on your poem idea.

Poetry

It was a bright cold day in April, and the clocks were striking thirteen.

They aren’t watching.

It was a rainy day in May, and the dogs were barking at the door.

They aren’t watching.

It was a sunny day in June, and the tensions were high on the plateau.

They aren’t watching.

It was the first day of July, and they called.

Maybe they ARE watching,

but THEY aren’t your problem anymore.
