One of today's five prompts-
Write a haiku about what you see out the window.
Looking out the dining room window to the backyard:
Dry leaves barely hanging on,
Fall turns to winter.
Evergreen pine branch,
Soggy leaves on muddy ground,
Thorns and orange berries.
This was such a fun assignment! My younger girls are working on poetry this week, also- writing a definition poem, a limerick, an example of hyperbole, and a diamante. Poetry prompts us to think and express ourselves in a new and different way. Try it!

haikus are popular this week!! It is really quite impressive how much can be said just using a few lines of poetry!
