POEM STARTER

You are convinced you can see mysterious figures lurking in the shadows. Write a poem about them.

Choose a specific style of poetry that would be suitable for this theme.

Lurk

Quick pants and shortened breath,

The hunter and the prey.

Stop for one moment, should you dare?

Risk such, and your life could go away.


Beyond the veil of darkened mist

Is the shadows’ new best friend.

I stand alone with focused glare,

As my vision starts to bend.


Friend or foe?

Ally or enemy?

Regardless, there they lurk,

Waiting for the best of me.
