Poetic Inspiration

I've been practicing poetry as part of my morning journaling, not that I believe I'm a great poet, but because I hope it will improve my prose.
I've been using Kim Addonizio and Dorianne Laux's The Poet's Companion to guide me.
I've adapted one of their poetry prompts for fictional characters:

Describe an object that you associate with your character. How does the character use this object in a way that provides insight into

their personality?

I'll love to hear everyone's response to this prompt.
