Did you know that Magnetic Poetry was invented by Dave Kapell, who was a songwriter? He wrote words on pieces of paper and rearranged them, hoping to use it as a starting point for lyrics. To keep the arrangements of words from being accidentally disturbed, he thought to glue the paper to magnets.
I enjoyed making the poems because I could write whatever I want. It was also hard to make the poems because I only had certain words to use. I made sure that I had a bit of a plan before making them so it was much easier knowing which words are where.
Thank you for reading my blog. Here is my magnetic poem:
Kia ora Kylah!
ReplyDeleteChris here again, from the Summer Learning Journey.
Thank you for all your explanation! I feel like poetry is never easy, and there’s no “right” way to do it. It’s all about seeing what each person produces. I really like this one, especially the ending, very clever! Have you and you family had much chance to get out and enjoy summer so far? Also know, I did not know about Dave Kapell, thank you for sharing!
Looking forward to seeing what else you post!
Ngā mihi,
Chris
