POEM STARTER
‘I sometimes forget how easy it was to say hello to a stranger.’
Write a poem that ends with this line.
Stranger
hello stranger,
i am nobody to you
and its fantastic, isn’t it?
i dont know you,
you dont know me,
this is exactly what i want.
this is exactly why i write:
because between two pages,
i am nothing and nobody!
doesn’t that sound great?
i don’t know why im telling you
about how much i love
being someone who isn’t
my weight
my height
my eyes
my lashes
my looks
my voice
my mouth
because you’re just a stranger
and so am i,
so thank you for
helping me forget my
forgetfulness
when i forgot how easy
it would be to
talk to a stranger
