Recipe for Writing a Recipe Poem November Theme by Tamera Wissinger
When I wrote my first book, Gone
Fishing: A Novel in Verse, I included a poem called Recipe for Fishing. In it
the main character, Sam, explains the ingredients needed to go fishing. The
recipe p0em is really a how-to poem and is a fun way to express a topic that
isn’t necessarily about food, so in honor of this month’s theme I’d like to
share my Recipe for Writing a Recipe Poem.
Happy Thanksgiving, and happy
recipe poem writing!

I've never heard of a recipe poem before. How cool.
