POEM STARTER

Write a poem that shows how a single moment in a person’s childhood still affects them to this day.

It does not have to be a something negative...

The Crux

Crux: the decisive, or most important point at issue


I,

For one,

Am glad

I grew up with unlimited joy

That I was sheltered from loss

And agony.

That I was given I chance breath

What I thought was fresh air.


I,

For one,

Am glad

That my parents protected me from

Sadness and cruelty

And showed me joy instead.


I,

For one,

Am glad

That I was fortunate enough to have that chance

To seek that joy

To eat good food and drink clean water


But

I,

For one,

Am sad

That some will not

And did not get that chance

And maybe never will.


We,

For all,

Shall strive to give our children

A chance to grow strong and solid,

To show them peace

And give them

All we were given or wished we were.
