Firestarter Challenge Week 4 Title: Not Quite Half-Empty
(the categories of the exercises will change weekly), and I know it’s a new month but still the old title, but that’s just going to happen once in awhile.
- Event: An extended family meal.
- Imagery: Smell of cinnamon.
- Music: Write syllabic quatrains with 5,5,4,5 syllable counts, and an ABAB rhyme scheme.
- News Story: Use this story as a springboard for a poem, be it first person from someone in the news story, reading the story, hearing about the story from an eye witness, whatever. Today’s story is One snake for two people in Indian village.
- Time of Year: Christmas Morning.
