POEM STARTER
Write an elegy with an atmosphere of hope.
An elegy is a poem written about someone’s death, usually to grieve or appreciate them. Make this elegy have a hopeful, positive tone.
Not Gone
To a better place
They say
Where you have gone to stay
Though I am lost
You are not
I’ll tell myself each day
When sands of time
Stretch far too wide
I’ll carry your smile
Inside
As memories lament
I won’t forget
days we spent
And how your love
Inspired
In my heart
It’s planted there
A bloom that doesn’t end
You’re not gone
Just transformed
With a radiance
That transcends
