POEM STARTER

Imagine you are a young child attempting rhyming poetry for the first time.

Consider the language you use to reflect the child’s age. Also try to think about what would be an important topic for them to write about.

I Wish I Were Older

I feel like a little kid

Writing topics too grown

I can’t wait to learn to drive

I miss you when I’m home

My soul feels aged

Why can’t I be older

I want to walk down the aisle

And cry on your shoulder

Someone to call me mine

That would be nice.

Lord why am I like this

I’m certain what I want

But not in this moment.

Little me thought I could plan it all out.

Turns out I can, but it won’t truly work out.

Burnt out.

Love me.

Goodbye, lovely.
