[QUOTE="Marguerite, post: 335771, member: 1991"] Totoro, I know she is very young but could you research the poetry style "triolet" with her, and sit down with her to write one? You begin with a statement, something that you feel is important to you. You then split it into two parts and make sure that the word at each end of each part has an easy syllable to rhyme. You then write out the line pattern (in the same way limericks have a line pattern). Then you work out other sentences so these gaps are filled in. It's easier than it sounds but the end result can be amazing. There is another more complex type of poem like this called "villanelle". Save that for high school! Marg [/QUOTE]
