POEM STARTER

‘Whispers that come in the night often carry further than those in the day.’

Write a poem with this as the opening line. What imagery comes to mind from this line – and what further themes could be explored from there?

Dreams

Whispers that come at night

often carry further

than those in the day.


When the clamor stills

and fires are doused,

Shadows with veiled faces


Draw near the garden wall,

and through the lattice work

weave their parables.
