POEM STARTER
Write a poem exploring feelings of contentment and satisfaction.
While a large portion of poetry deals with difficult emotions; consider how you can express the opposite side of that.
I’m Alive
Oh me, oh my, How great this day!
Such wonders to behold.
Though the skies are dull & grey,
My eyes see shades of gold
For this day I found the thing
for which I long have strived.
My heart and soul now rise and sing.
I know I am alive.
I am content and satisfied,
And I feel so elated.
For once it’s happy tears I’ve cried
For the feelings now created.
So listen now my dearest friend,
And catch me if you can.
For as the day draws to its end,
I am a happy man.
