You remind me of somebody.
I don’t know who.
Do I look like someone
familiar to you?
We might be related.
Do you think we might be
buds on the branches of
one family tree?
Or you could be someone
that I used to know
when I was younger
a long time ago.
Your face is a face that
I wouldn’t forget,
so it doesn’t seem possible
that we just met.
But the memory hasn’t come back to me
yet.
You remind me of somebody.
I don’t know who.
Do I look like someone
familiar to you?
I'm giving away a copy of Write a Poem Step by Step every day in April. The book is based on my school visit presentations and includes a simple plan you can follow to create your own poems. I wrote it for students, teachers, and writers of all ages.
Post a comment here to enter. I'll choose one at random tomorrow and drop a copy of Write a Poem Step by Step in the mail—U.S. addresses only, please. I’ll email you for your mailing address if you win. And if you don't win right away, please try again. I'll have 31 copies to share!
