POEM STARTER

Write a poem about seeing the face of someone you love.

Whether romantic, platonic, or familial love, use emotive language to convery the feeling you get when you see this person.

The Orator

I see him like the sun,

the diamond patriarch, with his

sparkling eyes, his angled jaw,

his boyish lips from which

his fiery sermon spouts.

Freedom, courage, beauty, truth:

his lacy sentences bounce

off the walls like music notes—

and worse,

my heart aches with each stunning word;

knowing they are not meant for me.
