All my entries for Writer's Craft!
April 14th

All your life you’ve lived on the moon, but now you get to go to Earth for a vacation. What are you going to do? Write about your experience of that visit to Earth. (Extra credit if it’s child friendly, but, of course, that’s not mandatory.)


ENTRY

Sit down my children
To a story, I shall give birth
About my taking a trip from the moon
to the depths of planet Earth.

I got my rocket ticket
As part of a secret boon
From a dear friend of mine
Who lives on the moon

When eating there
You eat with a spoon
We slurp from our bowls
When eating on the moon

The weather was snowy
Instead of sunny like the moon
Humans said they only get all sun
In July, August and June!

In the park, I ate pretzels
We don't have those on the moon
But my food was soon stolen
And eaten by a loon!

Yes the Earth is beautiful
Just like the moon
But to tell you the truth
I won't be going back soon.

Science Fiction can be the tweak that takes you elsewhere. Use the following story starter to either introduce a poem or begin a story about waking up and finding yourself in a very, different future:

I’d always risen from the left side of my bed. That’s why when I woke up Saturday morning and found my bed pushed up against the wall on that side, it started off my day all wrong. I wish that had been the ONLY difference . . .


ENTRY
I woke up on my right
A physical fright
I'm sure it was morning
But it was as dark as night

My kitten barked like a dog
and was as heavy as a log
She'd instantly grown up
And ate like a hog

My car became a bike
With a wheel popped by a spike
To get to work now
Would take a five mile hike

I can't take this anymore
I don't care what else is in store
I'm never touching that bed again
Tonight, I'll be sleeping on the floor!
