POEM STARTER
Compose a pastoral poem that describes a meadow full of wildflowers.
Pastoral poetry focuses on the human connection with nature, and often idealises simple country living.
The Precipice
In the distance I find
Where the heavens part and let the sky shine through the depths…
Of shadows that cover the precipice
Where fields of color bloom - aglow
I chose this life over the world below
I long for serenity I have lost
Still haunted by the shadows
Lurking cold within the frost
Alas I will sit;
Toes tipped toward the whispering breeze
Where wildflowers bloom, in wait for me.
