  1. Keeping in mind the Fresh Language Relay and our work with the clichéd poem "Roses are red," write your own "love" poem (suggested length 8-20 lines; you can write more if you wish).  By "love" poem, I mean that your poem must be about love, but it could be a genuine "love" poem, a heartbroken poem, a revenge poem, etc.
  2. Before you begin writing, decide on a specific MOOD for your poem.  See Words to Describe Mood for ideas.
  3. Final note:  Try to use FRESH language.  Use unpredictable images (that still fit your mood) to convey the feelings in your poem.
