A couple writing exercises involving peaches
1) Write a poem in which someone (be it little kid, fleeing refugee, whatever you want them to be) eats their first ever peach, not knowing what it is, or what it will taste like. Have that moment stick out, though around the person something fairly dramatic stuff is happening.
2) Save Peach from Bowser! Tell us your plan of attack, being a master of the game (or novice) and how you’d do it better than Mario.
3) The peach is the state flower of Delaware, the state fruit of South Carolina, and Georgia is called the Peach State. Consider why this may be, why the peach is so loved, and come up with a theory. Frame the poem as you discovering these facts, and trying to think/figure out why the peach is so loved.
And finally,
4) Walk through a peach orchard at blossom time, thinking about some very heavy stuff that’s going on in your life. In line 5 pick up a fallen blossom that’s starting to turn brown on the side that was on the ground. Ponder this. Also consider the peaches that will be plumping on the branches soon.
