POEM STARTER

Submitted by Olivia Pemberly

Write an etiological myth in the form of a poem.

An etiological myth, or an origin myth, explains how something came to be the way that it is today.

Long Ago

She watched him day after day

As he stared at his beautiful reflection

Didn’t hear what she had to say


Golden head bent over the river

Too in love to tear his gaze away

She watched her voice just a quiver


Millennia ago they faded away

He just a beautiful flower child

And she just repeats what I say
