I’ve sent many of the people I really love copies of Marge Piercy’s poem, To be of use.

Today, I invite you to read this poem and start your freewrite with the prompt, The people I love the best… 

Keep going. Keep loving. Explore what you love about people. Make it personal. Make it as strange as you want. 

If you’re feeling brave, this may be one you could send to someone who sums up everything on your list. If you can’t think of anyone who fits all the things you would love (after all, no-one is perfect), then keep it as a reminder of how YOU’D like to be for other people.
