Poetry Invitation
April is National Poetry Month. It is a month of celebrating the reading and writing of poetry. Each week I will post an invitation that you have a week to respond. This week is about writing a list poem.
When you have written your poem just write in the the comment section and we will repost all the poems at the end of the week.
INVITATION
LOOK AT AN OBJECT IN A DIFFERENT WAY. READ THE FOLLOWING POEM TO GET THE IDEA.
THINGS TO DO IF YOU ARE A COW
Graze on a hillside meadow
dotted with dandelion suns.
Breathe in the sweet smell of clover
and freshly mown hay.
Flick flies away with your tasseled tail.
Feel summer days pass by
like silk over silver.
Moo and chew
and chew and moo.
Relax…
enjoy
your grand green view.
