Write a poem that centers on a “Mood Word,” and follows the pattern below: Using metaphors: concrete/tangible images that pin down abstract ideas like feelings by using comparisons.

Pattern of poem:(lines)

1.   Required line (mood).

2.   An example of how your mood does not feel

3.   Another example of how your mood does not feel

4.   Another example of how your mood does not feel

5.   Required “mood” line (name your mood again and describe just how your mood feels with another metaphor)

6.   Another example of how your mood DOES feel

7.   Another example of how your mood DOES feel

8.   Another example of how your mood DOES feel

EXAMPLE:

I’m mellow

Not a go lay in a sunny field and chew on a piece of grass mellow

Not mellow enough to give a bum all my money

Not mellow enough to sit on an ocean yacht and drink lemonade

But just a sit in the air-conditioned living room watching re-runs mellow

Mellow like a nothing to do Saturday morning

Mellow like watching your cork from the bank of a cool country pond

A “do what I want” mellow that takes no effort or planning.
