POEM STARTER

Inspired by Michael Espinoza

Write a fable set to verse.

How can you recreate the moral lesson of a fable in poetry format?

Did You Hear The One About

Did you hear the one about the hare and the tortoise?

Is it a lesson in perseverance?

Slow and steady leads to success

Haste always leads to failure

The braggadocio get their comeuppance

Fables are another word lies

The lesson is

Hares are bigger brawny bunnies

And no one knows the difference between a tortoise and a turtle

And the only truth is lies well told with characters familiar yet exotic

Last forever
