POEM STARTER
Write a series of five Haiku set at the same event, exploring the five senses: sight, smell, sound, touch, taste.
A Haiku is a form of Japanese poetry, consisting of three lines that generally do not rhyme, with a syllabic structure of 5-7-5.
Alice
I saw the rabbit
Stopwatch, coat, tie, down the hole
Picnic forgotten
My knees scrape the ground
I crawl, down the rabbit hole
Now I feel weightless
Paper, fungi, tea?
My nose knows no nothings
Only everythings
I am sat; table
Clinking china, rustled hat
Whispered madness, cat
Inviting letters
‘Eat me’ they say; tall, short,
Taste of madness too
I wonder of land. But who visits wonderland?
