Pathways
Images are a great prompt for poetry. Check out the Edmonton Pipelines website. The author took photos of pathways in Edmonton and then wrote about them. Her writing is not in the form of poetry, but her language is very poetic.
Choose a picture from the website and write a poem inspired by that pathway or write a poem about pathways in general.
Cheers,
Mrs. F.
Poems often describe an emotion. Try writing a poem to describe a single emotion.
A riddle poem may work well for this prompt, where you leave the emotion as a surprise for the last line.
Here's my quick attempt:
Emotion Poem
by Kelly Flasha
Laughter bubbles
Skin prickles
Spine tingles
Eyes crinkle
Elated
Remember to use our feelings thermometers if you are having trouble thinking of a good feelings word!
When you are finished your poem post it to the blog.
Happy writing,
Mrs. F.
