POEM STARTER

‘All in a golden afternoon, under the skies of cloudless blue.’

Write a poem that begins or ends with this line, adapted from Alice in Wonderland. Don’t feel limited to the themes and images of the book – see where else you could go from these words.

Simon

All in a golden afternoon, under the skies of cloudless blue,

I remember a similar day, the one when I met you.

How I wish I could turn back time and simply walk away.

You ruined my life and left me with days of endless gray.

Who knew a monster hid behind the smile that took me in.

And only when I was free from you did I learn to live again.
