Happy Poetry Month!
I got such a kick out of this cartoon that I asked the writer of the cartoon, poet Barbara Crooker, if she would mind if I shared it on the blog. She graciously gave permission.
So, a chicken walks into a poetry slam. . . .
Your crazy prompt is to write a slam poem written by the animal of your choice. Which animal will it be? A cow? A pig? A dog? A cat? An elephant? A dolphin? ?????
As always, I would love to read what you come up with. Please share in the comments section.
In the deep water eddy
ReplyDeleteI waver
I glide
then along comes a worm
and takes me for a ride
up to the sunlight
into a boat
Soon I'll be dinner
with breadcrumbs for a coat.
