POEM STARTER

Write a villanelle about something that has been abandoned.

The villanelle is a type of poem characterised by its repeating lines and ABA rhyme scheme which create a lyrical effect. There are a number of other rules for a full villanelle if you wish to incorporate them.

Ruined home

Vines creep through cracked walls

Floors crack with ghostly patter

Ceiling broken, rubble falls


Insides ring with spectral laughter

dancing breaks through endless lull

an quiet ruin full of bursting chatter
