POEM STARTER
Submitted by Butterfly Queen
Write a poem that centres around one of the elements: fire, water, earth, or wind.
It could be descriptive or metaphorical.
Breathe In
Inside of me is a whirlwind of creeds
A version of me of endless devotions
As I encompass the world in the eye of my sea
And pour my heart out like a hurricane takes to an ocean
I am beauty and pain
Sorrow and hope
I may look hurt and in dismay
But I know there’s a knot at the end of my rope
I won’t succumb to other earthly things
As they move around me
For I am the judged, the cursed, and yet a blessing
As the world heats, I break free
And will reign for all and eternity.
What am I?
I am felt but not seen
I can add relief to the burning
Or I can bring the world to its knees
