POEM STARTER
Write a blank verse poem about love – whether that’s love for nature, friend, partner, child, pet etc.
Blank verse poetry doesn't rhyme, but normally uses strict structure to build a melody through rhythm.
Is It Real Love?
My greatest fear is this, my dearest friend:
That if I find my “destined angel” there,
With eyes that gleam so bright and beautifully,
A snarling wolf beneath will eat the sheep.
Such an eloquent way of putting this thought! Blank verse looks tricky but I’m assuming you aced this!
I appreciate that this is actually in blank verse, that is, unrhymed iambic pentameter.
But that’s not the only reason I liked it. I admire people’s ability to be concise by choosing just the right words for full potency.
Great work!
Thank you so much! This is my first blank verse poem so I really appreciate it 😄
I like this a lot, makes you think that if you get what you wanted are you ignoring those who can’t help themselves?
