We wrote some beautiful poems today in the sunshine...a propos for the subject: the "sublime" in nature. Slocan Valley residents will relate to the beauties of Nature, I am sure, since we live in a spectacular part of the world. We took Billy Collins' idea to use an image as a point of entry into writing a poem. The results were delectable, luscious, scrumptious...okay, I am just having fun with words.
Projects: Take a short story/newspaper article/essay and relate it to a poem of your choice. See handout for details.
Til next week, beatific bards!
