POEM STARTER

Write a poem about the heart, focusing on its physicality and actions.

Avoid the kind of metaphors and language which are normally associated with the heart's emotional connection.

Center

Center of the

Circulatory system,

There the heart is,

Pumping blood

In and out.


_Ba-bum,_

_Ba-bum,_

_Ba-bum._


Pulse,

Heart rate,

Beating…


_Ba-bum,_

_Ba-bum,_

_Ba-bum._

__


Through all the

Vessels,

Through all the

Veins,

The heart’s blood

Flows.


_Ba-bum,_

_Ba-bum,_

_Ba-bum._

__


My heart rate

Shoots up,

That pounding in

My chest,

An adrenaline rush!

Those are the best!


_Ba-bum,_

_Ba-bum,_

_Ba-bum._

__


It beats no matter

The time of day

Because a heart

Is here to stay.


_Ba-bum,_

_Ba-bum,_

_Ba-bum._
