Paint Chip Poetry

Please polish and post the paint chip inspired pieces (alliteration!) you came up with in your journal during class on Thursday.  You may group them all in one post or do a separate post for each one.  Include an image for each piece.  Let me show you how to do this if you don't know--it's easy and important to add visual interest to your work.

You can post all your poems, but at minimum please post these (in any order you choose):

• 2:  haikus 
• 1:  acrostic using a paint color name
• 1:  8+ line free verse poem using the paint name as a title or in a line
• 1   8+ line narrative poem that uses the 4 paint color names (or you had the option to write a short piece of prose--memoir or fiction, etc.)

If you finish with this assignment, click around on the info at HGTV about the Psychology of Color, how different colors affect our moods.   There are various color quizzes out there you could try, too.  Or you could continue to customize your blog with gadgets (quotes, images, tools) on your sidebar, or update your profile. Thanks!
