It’s Week Three of National Poetry Month! I’m still sharing poetry collections and prompts every weekday on YouTube, but in anticipation of Earth Day this Saturday, I am also participating in the Authors Take Action #ClimatePoemProject!
You can find links to climate poetry prompts from your favorite children’s authors and poets here.
Here’s my contribution:
Write a poem about your oldest and most distinct memory of a weather event. Place either yourself or a favorite fictional character in the scene, and end the poem on a hopeful note.
Potential weather events could include:
- Storms
- Floods
- Droughts
- Tornadoes
- Hurricanes
- Hail
- Snowstorms
- etc.
