Imagination

Write a five-line poem. I don't care about form, rhyme or any structure other than what is required below. Write what you IMAGINE.

  • The first line of the poem involves an emotion: sadness, anger, confusion, hurt, or anything of your choice.
  • The second line describes the emotion as a color. For example, a student might describe anger as "red as a stop sign;" happiness might be "as pink as a puppy's tongue."
  • The third line starts with "It happens when . . .." For example, "Anger happens. . .when I'm told to get up in the morning." "Confusion happens…when I have a test but don't do my homework."
  • The fourth line begins with "It sounds like . . .." For example, "Sadness sounds like. . .a kitten left out in the rain."
  • The last line of the poem repeats the original emotion.
