Poetry Challenge #122-Here's To Bagels, Hats & Bagel Hats!
Today, January 15th, is both National Hat Day and National Bagel Day. I’ve given some thought the matter and still, I have absolutely no idea what hats and bagels have to do with each other…except, of course, that everyone hungry/bagel crazed enough to be bageling on the streets of Manhattan in the winter chill is wearing—or should be wearing—a hat. Maybe you’ll have a better idea:
Poetry Challenge #122
Hat’s Off to Bagels, Hats & Bagel Hats
Think of words that have to do with either hat or bagel.
Come up with words to describe your pick, words you think of when you have one or the other, or words that bagels and/or hats bring to mind.
Now use those words to form a shape poem. Fit the words into either the shape of a bagel or the shape of a hat. Make it beautiful!
Einstein’s Bagels is a Texas fav.
Set your timer for 7 minutes
Don’t think about it too much; just do it!
Start writing!
