CREATIVE WRITING Monday 16th April 2012
A December eve chilly and dark She sits alone in a mall Her dog asleep too weak to bark Strumming her guitar to all
Shoppers laden with gifts walk past She has no money to live She’s treated as a lower caste No one wants to give
A tear flows down her grubby cheek A sigh, a shudder, a whimper She holds her hand out feeble and weak Smiles at each passer by’s simper
Church bells ring, a distant peal Singers sing in refrain Slowly she begins to kneel And prays in the freezing rain
Underline all of the words and phrases that suggest the character
and the setting of the woman in this poem
