Today I thought I’d attempt a HOT challenge from the Literacy grid, as I know a few of you have done this already.

With poetry, remember that ‘less is more’,  so choose your words carefully and remember to paint a picture in the reader’s mind.

Drifting slowly down
Like pink confetti falling – 
Cherry blossom tree.

Trees scrape the night sky,
Bare branches clutching at stars.
The storm is coming.

And now a silly one  –

Stretching and yawning,
The world’s laziest cat wakes – 
“Time for my tea, Mum!”

Hope you’ll have a go too! 🙂
