Twinkle Twinkle Twist
Poetry Contest
Twist on the nursery rhyme Twinkle, twinkle
Original poem:
Twinkle twinkle little star
How I wonder what you are
Up above the world so high
Like a diamond in the sky
Twinkle twinkle little star
How I wonder what you are
Your challenge:
Somehow change the nursery rhyme... it can be completely different or keep the idea of the star. However, the only line from the original poem you can use is "Twinkle, twinkle little star"
You can add on multiple stanzas, varying from 2, to 4, to 6 lines apiece. The rhyming pattern must be as followed:
For 2 line stanzas: aa
For 4 line stanzas: aa, bb
For 6 line stanzas: aa, bb, aa
(Near rhymes are fine)
Have fun with it!
