POEM STARTER

You are out walking when you see a person sitting alone on a bench under a Willow tree, crying. Write a poem about them.

This could be written as though you are observing the person but not interacting, or as though you have approached the person and offered to help.

Willow Girl

willow girl

under the tree

I watch you weep

and I wonder

why do you cry

under the tree

in this lovely place

that’s so serene

did someone hurt you

are you unloved

or is it silly

like loosing a glove

oh willow girl

I hope you know

that I am watching

you’re not alone

come take my hand

and let us run

away from the willow

and into the sun
