Go into the kitchen. Stand in front of a cupboard with food in it (or the fridge). Close your eyes, open the door (or better still, have someone else open it for you), stretch out your hand, and touch something. Keep your hand where it is. Open your eyes. Look at the thing you are touching. Congratulations! You just found the object that you are going to write a poem about.
Creative Prompts
Daily Creativity #20: Write a Romance
Write a romance. You can make it anything between rom-coms and Romeo and Juliet, but make sure there are two characters in love, and at least one obstacle (internal or external) to that relationship.
Daily Creativity #19: Write about the First Day of School
Write about the first day of school (can be elementary school, middle school, high school, college, or anything else). You can make this a shining moment for your character, or you can make it awkward and embarrassing. Have fun with it!
