Today, print out copies of your nature poem for your workshop group. Each member of the workshop group should read and suggest revisions, poetic techniques, and comments about the poem.
Write your comments/suggestions on the poem draft. When you have completed this, please hand these comments in to me first...I'll sort them, give you credit for your work, then pass these on to the poet for revision.
Continue revising and reshaping your poetry.
In the meantime, try a little structure. Choose one of the following closed-form poetry forms and try writing one of the following:
Sonnet
Villanelle
Sestina
Pantoum
Ballad
Then for fun, try a few haiku, clerihew, or limericks. Don't take the limerick and clerihew seriously, please.
