POEM STARTER

Write a poem exploring feelings of contentment and satisfaction.

While a large portion of poetry deals with difficult emotions; consider how you can express the opposite side of that.

A Waking Dream

Wreathing my thoughts in a silver lace vine

This dream dawns it’s day ‘fore I even start mine


It gifts me a silly, impervious grin

And swears the world’s kinder that it’s ever been


My mind is all hazy…would this make him proud?

Of course I would tell him! No - never out loud!!


How could I remember the week, month or year

When it’s been a full day without him being near?


Cheeks glowing, steps bouncing, I close one more day

Neglecting what happened and heeding what may.
