BRAINLIST Make a list of ten words with similar sounds that could be used to describe one of the scenes above. Then write a short descriptive poem using those words in a way that creates a pattern of sounds--either end rhymes, off rhymes, alliteration, assonance, or consonance, or a combination of those devices. Consider including anaphora as well--make several lines begin with the same word or phrase. Scenes are a fireworks display, Friday night football, a solar eclipse, and a holiday parade.

Explanation:

Fireworks,

They light up like f iery flowers.

That burst upon the night,

Then fall to earth like a spark filled shower

of crimson, purple and white.

In the b old night sky

The fireworks take flight

all in different directions

like flying a kite

The bueaty of the fireworks

is the greatest of sights

the sound and the blazes

the biggest and the brightest

Then once its over

another uprights

it fills the air

with music and light

Then it fades into darkness

doesn't put up a f ight

Then takes off again

1. read the following excerpt from franklin d. roosevelt's "fireside chat 19":

on the other side of the picture, we must learn also to know that guerilla warfare against the germans in, let us say serbia or norway, us; that a successful russian offensive against the germans us; and that british successes on land or sea in any part of the world strengthen our hands.

remember always that germany and italy, regardless of any formal declaration of war, consider themselves at war with the united states at this moment just as much as they consider themselves at war with britain or russia. and germany puts all the other republics of the americas into the same category of enemies. the people of our sister republics of this hemisphere can be honored by that fact.  

the true goal we seek is far above and beyond the ugly field of battle. when we resort to force, as now we must, we are determined that this force shall be directed toward ultimate good as well as against immediate evil. we americans are not destroyers — we are builders.
