POEM STARTER

Belonging

Write a poem about what 'Belonging' means to you.

Shiny Silver Platter

I don’t know you

Maybe I do

But I hope you feel it


There are some people who bring it out

Make it noticeable

Give it to you

On a shiny silver platter

I have people like that


There are some people who try to take it

Because they don’t have it

They don’t feel it

Yet


Don’t let them get to you


It’s so hard to find it on your own

Not impossible

But hard


It looks different for everyone

But you’ll know when you feel it

It’s like a warm hug from your best friend

Unless you don’t like hugs

Then it feels like something else you love


I found it

I’m so grateful for the people that helped me

The people that deliver it

On that shiny silver platter

Every day


I try to do it for others

I want them to feel it as much as I do

Everyone deserves it

Everyone needs it


Sometimes you may think you have it

But it’s fake

Don’t let that discourage you

It exists for everyone


I don’t know what’s next

Where I’m going

Who you are

Or how the world works


But I know that I’ll always have it

Here

In their arms

In their heart

In the little corner

That we decorated with pink ribbons

Because that’s where it is


I hope you have a spot

A heart to rest in

Arms to hold you

A shiny silver platter

Where it will be delivered to you

By the right people

At the right time


I hope you feel it
