April - Poetry Month - Day Thirteen - Metaphor

 

       Happy Poetry Month, where poems parade in the streets, run like rivers within our veins or settle in our hearts every.single,time. 

       I am planning to use this older book pictured left that follows the alphabet with one kind of prompt each day. I used this book on occasion in the classroom years ago, but never worked through it day by day, with deliberation! Here goes!

       A metaphor brings together varied comparisons one might never imagine. Have you ever thought of an artichoke like this?
