POEM STARTER

Loss

Write a poem, in any style, that focuses on the theme of loss.

Whoops Now It’s Gone

It’s okay,


You didn’t mean to drop it,


People make mistakes


And it’s not their fault.



I mean


This one sort of is,


You could have caught it,


You could have saved it.



But you didn’t,


It’s slipped like butter


Out of your grasp


And onto the floor.



All that’s left now is…


Well…


Nothing,


Ha ha.



Let’s go over this again,


You slipped,


It dropped,


Whoops now it’s gone.



I pity you,


Poor little soul,


Staring sadly at your little loss,


A slip and whoops now it’s gone.




It was fragile though, wasn’t it?
