It’s Poetry Friday and I have just a quick post today, as I’m having a really busy week.
Last week while I was in Adelaide I bought myself two magnet sets, including boards and magnets, to add to my collection of magnetic words for inspiring and creating poetry. Earlier this week I posted the first poem I created using the sets. If you missed it, here it is:
When I got the set out today, I was attracted to the picture magnets and wondered if I could use some of them to inspire a rhyme. Here’s my effort, written in whiteboard marker:
And, when I looked back through my poems I came across this one written on my old, more staid whiteboard with some of my many other magnet words:
I look forward to creating lots more poems – simple and more complex – with my new toys.
Have a great Poetry Friday. This week’s roundup is hosted by Books 4 Learning. Head there to see links to more poetry goodness.

Yum, indeed! (I’m off to the kitchen to play with my poetry magnets and maybe find something to eat). =)

I love magnet words, pushing us to create something we might not have done with only pen & paper, & love “melt poison worry”, Sally. I had magnet words sitting by a metal cabinet at school, and so many students paused during the day to place a poem or two, joyful writing! Enjoy your busy week!
Tabatha says
We should definitely melt poison worries with magic music and cupcake wishes, Sally! Looks like you had fun 🙂
