POEM STARTER
‘It came to me like snails come to gardens: ready to consume.’
Write a poem that begins with this line.
the snail
it came to me
like snails come to gardens
ready to consume,
and so lonely
holding a shell of burdens
heavy as a tomb
it followed me
like the wake of a sailboat
trailing like a kite
flying so free
bouncing buoys, afloat
stark against the night

“bouncing buoys, afloat
stark against the night”
These are amazing lines that evoke imagery! You should be so proud :D
My only recommendation would be to add more punctuation like commas to give your poem a rhythm. But, this poem is fantastic! Good job <3
Fantastic imagery
