Creative Writing
This peom is a copy change poem. I stole the structure from the writing of William Stratford but then added my own ideas. This poem is an example of "great writers don't cheat, they steal."
Unexpected
In food I savor spicy flavor.
In life I cherish vivid excitement.
In friends I collect bold lively people.
And in colors I admire fuchsia and lime.
My husband, a bland man from the country,
Pesters, “Then how can you love me?”
Boldly I embrace him-
There are so many emotions logic will never trump.

(Written in the style of William Stratford)
