POEM STARTER

Submitted by Susan Santizo

Write a poem about a place which makes you feel nostalgic.

You can write in any style or genre, but keep this as the central theme.

Memory Lane

Today, I walk down memory lane.

As I walk through it,

I reminisce in it.

But as I walk further down this lane,

The houses colors are fading.


I remember the lane being filled with familiar faces

Ones that saw me

Eyes that knew mine

Now all the faces do is blur

Like old memories

Leaves falling away


The farther I walk down,

The thinner the road

The concrete crumbles


I come to the end of the lane

A blank wall I can’t seem to find the strength to climb


The heart knows when the memory lane ends,

Nostalgia fades,

And there’s no light ahead,

You may just stop walking,
