Instruction
Write a free verse poem on any theme that presents an unfolding of an experience (not just a summary of an experience) and in which you focus on the use of imagery and the sound of words. Within this assignment be sure to:
Try to avoid the `Seven Deadly Sins` of Poetry
Use imagery to capture meaningful sights, sounds, or tastes, etc., that relate to the theme of your poem
Focus on the sense of `line` in the poem
Make use of figurative language, especially either metaphor or simile
Avoid the use of clichs, either in phrasing or idea
Focus on the use of sound in the poem
This will be included in the Creative Writing Portfolio.
