POEM STARTER

Write a poem about the first time you did something.

New experiences are often thought-provoking. Try to stay away from obvious first times and go for something unusual.

Nervous

Crouching in anticipation,

The rope taut my gloved hands

I lean my weight over the cliff face.

Beneath me, the eighty feet

To the ground.

That first jump suspended between

Air and earth, my hands slipping

Giving me the slack that propels

Me along with gravity,

Towards the ground.

Two more leaps

It was over, solid ground

Beneath my feet. From nervous to elated

In three leaps.
