POEM STARTER
Write a descriptive poem which portrays a busy city.
You could use metaphors, imagery, and appeal to the senses, to really capture the feel of a city.
Heart Of The City
Getting past the chaos is the hard part.
After that, our city is alive in every block.
The air feels lighter,
Like your mind after a walk.
And the honking of the horns,
Aren’t as loud as they seem
The blur of the street lights
Red mixes with green
Like the tree during December
But the yellow is enough
To warm the city with its ember
The stars are our lamps
The moon is the billboard
The sun doesn’t exist here
In our city
We don’t fear
We will never grow cold,
Because we have love to keep us warm
In the heart of the city
We can face any storm
