Jill, wonderful prompt. I’ve already seen a change in my thoughts since I read this, my mind on the prowl for new ways to view theworld. Linda’s right, children can teach us so much about looking at our surroundings with fresh eyes.

I like this prompt! Similes and metaphors are favorites of mine.

I have two kids and they were never into poetry but my 2 1/2-year-old granddaughter is following in her grandma’s footsteps. She thinks in terms of similes, I swear. A couple weeks ago, she was out in the woods hiking with her dad and they came across some deer droppings and she told me later, “The deer poop looked like jelly beans.”
