POEM STARTER
Submitted by Butterfly Queen
Write a poem that centres around one of the elements: fire, water, earth, or wind.
It could be descriptive or metaphorical.
Earth
Earth. It is important. We grow food in the ground.
And when we build a building, we need a foundation sound.
And I know it might sound silly
But people say the earth is round.
Earth. We feel its awesome power when the ground does shake.
And though we hate to see the destruction of a big earthquake
We marvel at the universe
As we ponder the path we take.
Earth. An itty bitty speck in the great universe wide
Some say it is a place where an alien may reside
But it gives us amazing views
Of that universe so wide.
Earth. It is our only home. We must give it our full care.
We must be good stewards of the earth for we cannot live out there.
The stars cannot provide a second home.
So we must give this earth our finest care.
Earth is where we walk. It is the ground beneath our feet.
Earth is where we see the universe with an amazing front row seat.
Earth is where we live so we must give earth our care
Lest a disaster of our making we ultimately do meet.
