Poetry Journal #3: Place Poem (Using your writing from Poetry Journal #2)

Look at your previous journal entry, and re-read it while highlighting and/or underlining phrases and/or words that you like the most or find most expressive/interesting.  Then, for Poetry Journal #3, arrange those words on a page in any way you'd like.  Think about the way the words sound, and think about how you would like to set up the poem.  Do you want it to be a few stanzas, or just one long one?  Play with the words knowing that there are no rules.  Your finished poem must be at least 8-10 lines long structured however you'd like.


(8+ lines = 5 points)
