Brushstrokes of Emotion

Pen a poem that depicts a particular emotion, characterized by rich, descriptive imageries.

Choose an emotion—joy, anger, sorrow, fear, love—and infuse your poem with images that reflect this feeling. Avoid telling the reader what emotion you’re describing directly; instead, let your imagery inspire those feelings. By doing so, you illustrate the power of imagery in invoking emotions and how particular images are linked to specific emotional responses.
