POEM STARTER

Write a poem that could be titled ‘Cloudy’.

Whether you stick with weather imagery, or explore emotive ideas, try and keep this title in mind as you write.

Cloudy

Why is it that every morning when the radio comes on it’s the weather? And why does the forecast always predict cloudy skies with a chance of rain? Why can’t I just tune in when a catchy song comes on Lady Gaga perhaps? There’s nothing more depressing than the weatherman saying cloudy Why can’t they say cloudy with a chance of sun instead of rain? Why are clouds enough to trigger a bleak outlook for the rest of the day? Or maybe it isn’t the clouds, but simply my head that is cloudy. It could be that I can’t take any more hovering balls of rain today. Going home I put the radio on and again, here it goes ‘Cloudy with a chance of rain’
