POEM STARTER

You are out walking when you see a person sitting alone on a bench under a Willow tree, crying. Write a poem about them.

This could be written as though you are observing the person but not interacting, or as though you have approached the person and offered to help.

Weeps Under The Willow

As I began

My evening stride

A Weeping Willow

Caught my eye


It was not

The Willow weeping

But instead I saw

Many tears seeping


A person sobbing

Under the Willow tree

Not an uncommon

Sight to see


The Willow tree

Is a place to be

To think alone

Maybe have some tea


When you are sad

You can go to the tree

And find the answers

And find the key


Underneath

The Willow tree

A person sobbing

Next to me
