The process of creating the poem normal consisted of a lot of thinking. I first took words or phrases out of the past emails I’ve received after spring break. After I’ve found the words or phrases I want, I take out all the unnecessary words such as, the, but, and. Once I got the words I wanted it was time to put it all together. I liked the experience of creating a poem through this process and I thought it was creative how we had to use past email to create the poem.

In this unique situation,

disappointed we can’t

 

Taking care of yourself?

Let me know

 

I hope you are all well and safe,

Let me know

 

We’ll get past this part:

Work together,

Avoid leaving house,

socially distance

 

When is normal,

I don’t know…
