POEM STARTER
Write a poem about a birthday.
This doesn't have to be about your own birthday. What themes could you explore through writing about birthdays?
Time
Again a year passed
With change in my bones.
I’ve grown, but I’ve fallen—
Time seems to tick me down,
Flashing me with passing seasons
And small moments I wish to hold.
I don’t want to grow older…I hate the change it brings.
Can’t I stay this young?
Every minutes that passes, I wish to keep.
But I’m old enough to know I can never stop Time.
Happy birthday to me.
