10 Days of Poetry

Synonym poetry- choose any word. Write that word in capital letters on the first line. In a thesaurus ( http://www.m-w.com), look up the word and find three to five synonyms for it. Write the synonyms on the second line. On the third line, write a descriptive phrase about the word. The last two lines of the poem should rhyme.

Students example:

LOVE
Attachment, adoration, warmth,
adore
Love is so pure, right down to the
core.

NOISE
Clamor, uproar, hullabaloo.
These things can really annoy you.
