POEM STARTER

Inspired by Niki

Create a poem set on an empty beach, where you are left at peace with your thoughts.

Tears Of The Sky

It’s starting to rain as I sit here on the beach looking across to the horizon People getting up to leave because they’re too afraid to get wet I’m sitting here Watching them leave And soon I’m all alone With the beach to myself _The rain coming down _ _My hair getting wetter _ _And wetter _ _And wetter_ I’m completely alone with the rain It never crosses my mind to get up and leave Because I find peace with the emotions of the sky coming down on me _The sand getting more muddy _ _And muddy _ _And muddy _ And I wonder why people find discomfort with the tears of the sky How they don’t see the beauty of the clouds getting too full And finally letting go _The waves getting bigger _ _And bigger _ _And bigger _ I wonder I wonder how many people go through their days not seeing the beauty of the world Not seeing just how extraordinary our life really is How everything in nature Big Or small Is truly a masterpiece
