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?
The Unknown
The trees seemed to gallop
Across the face of the wind
Moved mimsily with the invisible tide.
The groves with their vines
Swayed ever lightly
With the force of the cool morning.
Many a weary traveler advance
Through the misty woods
But none lay eye on the deep brooding secrets.
Many a tired troubadour proceed
And none stop to see the sinister and forbidding unknown.
Yet it is there
In the way the birds sing
And the amphibians croak.
The clandestine tales from long ago
Tell clearly of that of great importance
And those who wish to see shall
Through the ruffling of the trees
The secret of present and future.
