Sestina - Writing Day

Hello Seniors!

Today we write.  Take your time.  Start over.  Play.  Try.  Move your first stanza around so it fits better.  Change out a word.  Begin with your tercet.  Use the words in class.  Use a different version of a word from class.  You get the picture.  Write.  Type.  Edit.  Find a title.  What is your poem turning out to be about?  Sometimes you don't know what you are writing until you are writing it.  Be open. Be honest. Be you.
