POEM STARTER
Write a poem about nature reflecting a specific emotion.
Sunshine and Rain
Andrew is the sun peaking through the gray clouds as it rains
Forever returning bright though his light may be dimmed
And Justin is the rain that pours
Heavily at first then a calm drizzle
Drip drop drip drop
They’re like when you flip your pillow over to the cold side
Or take a hot shower after freezing in the cold
They’re sunsets at the beach
And sunrises in the morning on your way to school
They’re everything I need and more
Justin is my savior
He’s the miracle doctor that saved me from myself
Andrew is my euphoria
Leaving long lasting bursts of happiness and teaching me new ways to grow
But of course Drew doesn’t realize he’s impacted my life
I’ve learned so much from Andrew and Justin
They’ve encouraged me to be myself
They’ve helped me grow and mature
And I’ve finally learned to have fun
I learned that it’s okay to slack off every once in a while
They’re the warmth of a fireplace
That brings solace on a lonely winters day
They’re water
Essential and always there when I need it
They always seem to know when I need them
My perspective has changed
My confidence has grown
They’ve built me up from my crumbled state
Like legos that have been destroyed
I’d put their needs above my own in a heart beat (I already have)
I love you Justin
I love you Drew
I don’t know what type of person I’d be
Or if I’d even still be alive today without you
A positive poem to fight the negative thoughts
Justin is my rain
Andrew is my sunshine
And together they are a rainbow
Beautiful and rare to come by
My once in a lifetime sunshine and rain
I will forever remember you
