POEM STARTER
Inspired by Robin Marlowe
Write a poem that contains a volta before the final line.
A volta is a twist, normally at the end of a sonnet. Rather than a plot twist, this is normally a change of ideas, an inversion of the main theme, or a change of heart about an opinion.
My Love
Oh my Love,
How you have changed,
You are as graceful as a dove,
But oh how I feel so estranged.
It was hard to love you,
But that is not your fault, dear,
You were like a wonderful view,
No matter how queer.
I wish I could have loved you forever,
We could have been so much,
But you were too clever,
I could not bear your touch.
And I saw with sorrow and I was thrilled,
When I had you killed.
