A Sentence as a Poem: Photos and Story

Enjoy transforming these pictures we discussed in class today into descriptive sentences, and then into poems. Remember that each picture has a possible story behind it. Consider that as you construct your sentence and poem. Also, don't forget that your poem may not include words that are not already in your sentence. Feel free to use William Carlos Williams' The Red Wheelbarrow as a model, it is posted below. Have fun and I look forward to hearing your work.
