POEM STARTER
Write a poem about something a young child wants very badly but cannot have.
Consider your language use for the chosen age of the child and choose a specific style of poetry that would be suitable for this prompt.
Dear Santa
I don't understand it
They are just toys
But some are for girls
and some are for boys
I don't understand it
I just want to know
What it would be like
In my own little home
We talked about colours
And I prefer pink
They thought I was joking
But that's what I think
I don't like big fights
I don't like trucks and cars
I like pretty fairytales
And cute popstars
I wish I could like what I want without fear.
Dear Santa, I wish for a dollhouse this year.
