Another writing group which I take part in is called “Write Chicago!.” It is a group of poets. We don’t have weekly meetings, but when we do meet, we go to a place in the city or suburb such as a museum, zoo, etc. We spend some time looking at what is there and sometimes have guided tours through the museums and then we write poems about what we notice. Yesterday, we went to Navy Pier. Here are some pictures I took with my phone and the poem I wrote.
NAVY PIER
People of every race and tongue
From very old to very young;
Everyone seems so engaged
With shops and rides and places to dine,
Some of them even selling wine.
Screams are coming from a swing.
A black bird has red stripes on its wing.
IT'S NEVER TOO LATE!
