POEM STARTER
Deep Roots
Write a poem about the importance of roots - it could be physical (like a tree) or metaphorical (like a character's upbringing), or a comparison of both!
Mangrove
Here roots reach the air
they cannot trust the sand
salt water would corrode
leave fissures in the spine
they take what sustenance
they can through
calloused tongues
pray in their complex mass
for kinder shores to grow
