A Brave Writer's Life in Brief

Thoughts from my home to yours

Friday Freewrite: Springtime Poem!

Dogwood blossom in the skyImage by Jinx!

Yesterday was the first day of spring and today is World Poetry Day! Let’s combine the two and write an acrostic poem about the season.

Acrostic poems are fun to do. First, write the word “spring” vertically like this:

S
P
R
I
N
G

Next, brainstorm words/phrases that describe the season then place words/phrases on the lines that begin with the same letters. For inspiration, here are a couple of one word per line acrostic poems, and here are some that use phrases.

Enjoy!
