POEM STARTER

Write a poem that includes the motif of masks.

A motif is a repeated but varying detail which highlights the poems theme, similar to a symbol.

Security Blanket

Here the sky descends in a peaceful pause

The magic eraser of this day’s flaws


Cloaked in endless layers of colorless blur

No option but to give in to the misty lure


The company of clouds, a heavy head cure

Vibrant gray hues and a stillness so pure


A cushion from all the noise of society’s stir

This moment away, but still work to endure


Mask undone and with a crash on the floor

Who are you, and can you truly be sure?
