The World Is Not A Pleasant Place to Be
by Nikki Giovanni
The world is not a pleasant place
to be without
someone to hold and be held by
a river would stop
its flow if only
a stream were there
to receive it
an ocean would never laugh
if clouds weren't there
to kiss her tears
the world is
not a pleasant place to be without
someoneSlide5
With Inspiration from Nikki Giovanni
We will now work together to create our own versions of “The World Is Not A Pleasant Place To Be”
We will keep the first and last stanzas from her poem
The middle stanzas will be a team effort from you and your classmates
You will not know who’s stanzas are going to work together with your own
You need to create 2 or 3 metaphor stanzas (3-4 lines each)
Your stanzas should deal with some sort of experience or relationship on Earth
Her Middle Stanzas:
a river would stop
its flow if only
a stream were there to receive it an ocean would never laugh if clouds weren't thereto kiss her tearsThink Nature:Grass, Trees, Stars, Wind, Water, Dirt, Ice, Snow, etc.
Write this on a sheet
that
you can turn in and make sure your name is on it.Slide6
