POEM STARTER
Write a Chueh-chu about sunshine.
A Chueh-chu is a Chinese poetic form based on a shortened sonnet. It has 2 stanzas with 4 lines each, with 10 syllables in each line.
Ascend Me High, Sunshine.
Ascend me high; I allow your hands, wings,
Oh, your shimmers are quite the blinding sight,
But a gift cowards are eager to throw,
Hiding away in the darkness of shade.
Ascend me high, with you I will reside,
Bathing in the light of your waterfall,
In the crux of dark, your glow remains,
And you’ve sign your signature on the world.
