POEM STARTER

Write a poem that has a whimsical mood.

The word whimsical is defined as being playfully fanciful, especially in an appealing way. What kind of language would you use to portray this?

Star-soaked Demise

Stepped out of my spaceship mid-flight

Into the teary, star-speckled sky

Black as night but bursting with color

Found myself falling into a slumber


But it wasn't a slumber, you see,

I'd forgotten my helmet, silly me!

Frightened as the air was sucked out of my lungs

A sinking feeling settling in my tum


Stardrops dancing in front of my eyes

Laughing as they watched me die

Floating about in a teary haze

They drifted past my afixed gaze


The suddenly, someone came out of the blue

Said, "silly you, I've been there too,

Don't worry though, it gets better

You just have to wait for calmer weather!"


With that, the figure floated on past

Left me helpless, floating unattached

To my spaceship, which drifted farther away

Oh what a hopeless, miserable day!
