Posted in Poetry, tagged #NPM19, #PlayingwithpoetryNPM, color poem on April 17, 2019| 10 Comments »
My friend Dani Burtsfield teaches kindergarten in Montana. She asked me how she could use the paint chips with her little ones. I suggested a color poem. The idea is simple. Each line begins with the color name. This is a way for young students to learn about metaphor in a concrete way. I wrote a poem for her to use as a model for her students. The pattern is Green is ______ followed by an action.
