More Poetry Adventures at Titirangi Library

I met another talented group of poets last week.

They joined me for a workshop at the wonderful Titirangi Library.  We started off the afternoon with a little warm up and the poets wrote some fantastic lines…

Envy tastes like sour lemons.
Holly
Anger feels like fire burning down your back.
Amelia
Calm tastes like a tropical breeze.
Hannah
Happiness smells like freshly baked bread.
Holly
Happiness sounds like a butterfly singing.
Corey
Worry feels like a boat rocking on the sea.
Holly
Happiness sounds like squeals of joy.
Amelia
Sadness looks like a hundred tears.
Holly
Excitement sounds like a squealing pig.
Holly
Happiness feels like fluttering.
Hannah

What a creative bunch! I was really impressed with their poetry.  Here are some of my favourites…
