Writing a poem is an adventure.
The treasure is your poem’s creation.
A pencil is your sword; the paper’s your shield.
The map’s your imagination.

A spark of inspiration begins the quest.
It guides you to your goal.
Inspiration can take many forms.
Just look inside of your soul!

A poem can be about anything
From a waterfall to a kangaroo.
Your poem can take many forms.
Try a limerick, or even a haiku.

A vibrant setting invigorates the journey.
Characters add charm and delight.
A poem requires a cunning twist.
Find one that sounds just right.

The struggle of finding the perfect rhyme!
More frustrating than any travail.
Writer’s block is an impenetrable fortress,
Persevere, or you will fail.

Finally, your poem is finished.
You succeeded a daring feat.
Now show your poem to a friend.
Your quest is now complete!
