POEM STARTER

The Revelation

Write a poem with a structured rhyme scheme, using this as the title.

The Revelation

A revelation! Elation

In flight of or in spite of

Despair from unfair

Choices and voices

That lead the need

To end a journey where

Knowing less or

Not at all

Isn’t all that’s there.


An epiphany! And any

Newfound sounds

Of discovery uncovering

Truth; unseen meaning

Hidden and forbidden

From view until

You learn

To start living.


A rhyme! A time

For control that tolls

A bell of order well

Until the will

Lets go. And no

Pen or paper

Can stop you

From continuing on.


And the rest of the story

Is up to you to tell.

It doesn’t matter

If you tell it well, too.
