POEM STARTER

Take the first line from a book and use it to begin a poem.

Try to choose a book at random and challenge yourself to write the poem around it, instead of planning to choose a book based on your poem idea.

Hephaestus Was Angry

It was a pleasure to burn

The fire danced about the forest

Hephaestus was angry


The fire licked the trees

It burned the leaves

And ash like a blanket in the air


It was a pleasure to kill

Let his liquid anger out

His large hands were charred


Hephaestus was livid

His powerful hand was hitting the earth

His lips cursed the god’s above

Fahrenheit 451 by Ray Bradbury
