My prompt: grab a piece of junk mail and write a found poem using all (or as many as you can) of the words in it/on it!!!! I used the return envelope from Netflix. Since I wanted to mark out the words as I used them, I made a copy of the envelope. That was helpful.
Great idea, and I love the poem!
ReplyDeleteHey Sue!!! Thanks. It was fun to write.
DeleteI'm not sure where to post my poem for today so I guess here is as good as any space!
