Good bye war and conflict and
hello to poetry for the month of May 2016
The writers
Helene, Terry,
Roslyn, Di, Juan,
The words of the day
Ersatz – synthetic
Amuck – rush about
in frenzy
Bolt – rush away
without control
Innocent – not
guilty of a crime or offence
The small group of
elite writers bolted in to create the following synthetic masterpieces - Roslyn
- The children, Terry – many meanings, Helene – blood stained monster, Diane –
The bull in the rodeo and Juan – John was a POW.
Four writers read
their sometimes emotional homework as follows - Roslyn – My father, Terry – Letter from Private
Jones, Helene – One beautiful Anzac Day and Juan - What is ANZAC day?
Exercise
The elite group
whiled away the afternoon with discussion covering many and varied topics.
Homework
- Write an Acrostic poem using a favourite word or the Alphabet
- Write any type of poem
