We Are Strong, a poem by Georgia Marshall, 11
We Are Strong By Georgia Marshall, 11 Fires burning across the globe Porcelain crashing True loves forced to see each other, only through windows. And when the sky is falling Through a cracked glass mirror, We have only a ray of hope Shining through the storm. We can find a way to breathe again, If we stay strong. We are strong, glowing warriors in masks. We can make it through Stop this virus. We will link arms again We just need to hold on We are strong Georgia Marshall, 11 Marblehead, MA
Daily Creativity #39: Write a Poem Inspired by a Breugel Painting
Study this painting for at least five minutes (set a timer!), zooming in to get a better look and taking notes on what you notice. Then write a 16-line poem about it. The artwork we are referring you to for this exercise is called The Procession to Calvary, painted by Pieter Breugel the Elder in 1564. It measures 124 cm × 170 cm (49 in × 67 in) and is in the collection of the Kunsthistorisches Museum, Vienna, Austria.
