POEM STARTER
Write a poem in the pentameter form.
The pentameter form is where each line contains 10 syllables. This gives the poem a unique and recognizable rhythm often found in sonnets.
What Will It Take?
I want to impress you so that you’ll stay
If I’m talentless, will you go away?
Why would you want me if I’m not unique?
Everyone else can be kind and caring.
Only get attention when I’m the best
But all I want is to really connect
Will anybody just give me a chance,
To show you that I’m a really good friend?
I don’t want to be the girl that can sing
I want your time, I don’t want flattery
I want to be seen like everyone else
And still be chosen without standing out.
