POEM STARTER
Write a poem that shows how a single moment in a person’s childhood still affects them to this day.
It does not have to be a something negative...
Chapter 2
Peace
Getting by without any help,
proved difficult.
I got a job at a hardware store a couple of towns away,
but they didn’t pay enough for me to afford rent.
I slept in my truck the first few months,
until I was finally able to find a place to rent.
It was a very old and crammed space,
but the rent was cheap,
and the neighbors friendly.
After a few months,
I had settled into my apartment.
I had made this place my own,
and finally felt at peace.
No one but me lives here,
no one.
