Been having more fun with poetry exercises. This time by putting together song titles together in the form of a poem and using one word from the title in the title of the next! Oh! I have wasted so much time on
Spotify putting this together but I ended up with two poems, the second of which I was pretty pleased with. I did use a few joining words so they made a bit more sense, but I kept them to a minimum. Have a go yourself. Can you do anything better? I'm sure you can. Do comment! Post yours here too. Go on, I dare you! (PS there is a small error...can you spot it? Hint: 1st poem!)
