POEM STARTER

Write a Clerihew poem about a pet you have or want to have.

A clerihew is a four-line poem following an AABB rhyme scheme, with the first line including the subject’s name. It often puts the subject into a silly or unlikely situation – perfect for writing about an animal!

Zeus

Zeus: A blue Merle chihuahua, spotted black, white and brown,

He curls his tail up as he parades about town,

With his sweet demeanor and unusually large ears and eyes,

Zeus pulls at my heart strings and holds all the ties.

A little thing, did you want two different spellings: Zues and Zeus? 🙂

After writing and copy editing for many newspapers and other large companies professionally, I felt drained of the desire to read or write for fun. Now that I am not trapped at a computer I am excited to explore the prompts and see what I can create!
