My English teacher is having my hole class write three poems for my finals and I really need a good grade on it. do you have any way to start a poem or at least help me start one its due tomorrow ?the instructions for my poetry assignmentsubject matter:one poem about Identity.one poem must describe a scene. be descriptive and use at least three of the five senses( smell, taste, touch, sight, and sound)one will be anything you want, so long as it is appropriate.style: of the above three poem'sone must have a regular rhythm and rhyme scheme.one must be in free verse.one will be in style of your own choosing.
tutu51595 6 / 19 3 Dec 21, 2012 #2The poem about scene will probably be the easiest. You just need to pick a moment from your past that you remember vividly (or you can just make one up, whichever is easiest) Personally i find that i get better graded on the poems i right when they are particularly depressing. You can get a good grade on a happier poem but its easier to get a reaction from something sadto start pick, pick the setting. the easiest way i start a poem is by using 3 single word linesfor example:"sicklonely $forgottenshe sat heartbroken and depressednot knowing what to make of her life"i just made that up on the spotjust build on the three words you started with and you'll have a beautiful poem in no time.
