Journal #10: Catalog Poem

After viewing Taylor Mali's "What Teachers Make" and reading "Daily" by Naomi Shihab Nye and "Woman Work" by Maya Angelou, write a catalog poem of your own.  You may choose to write about chores you have to do, dreams you have, annoyances/pet peeves, fears that you need to overcome, etc. 

You must use the following:  refrain, metaphor/simile
You should try:  rhyme, alliteration, or assonance
