POEM STARTER

‘Bees offer honey far more readily than they sting.’

Write a poem that begins with this line. What themes can this metaphor reflect?

Another Thought

Bees offer honey far more readily then they sting

And to think it’s such a simple thing

It’s like people most days now

When most family’s could be showing how

To treat others with kindness and respect

They teach a kid their neighbour weakness to dissect

The world of today is twisted that way

Bring chaos and ruin, oh but hey,

It’s everyone for themselves why care about others?

Why not just shove instead of helping our sister and brothers?

Now please don’t misunderstand if you see it different

But from my perspective the world is rifted

No one can agree and people look for mistakes

Why not just let it be and ignore the ranks?

But if this what people want

Who am I to tell the no, this is after all just a thought
