POEM STARTER
Write a poem from the point of view of an unwilling debutante being presented at court.
How would this young character feel about being introduced to their society?
Roses
I started life out as a seed
Been mistaken for a weed
Waited in the lilacs shade
There I wish I could’ve stayed
I bloomed too bright
and caught their sight
My doom I could not foresee
Why can’t we just let beauty be
Thorns can’t pierce a garden glove
Say goodbye to the place I love
Even roses will have cages
Cut and placed in porcelain vases
