Writing practice: Continue with The Cat in the Hat in blank verse
Above a little smile lightly veiled,
Our mother’s gaze hit boy, then girl, then fish.
“Alright,” she said, “you finish up in here,
I’ll cook us up some warm and yummy soup.”
Some day, perhaps, this lesson will return,
In circumstance of greater consequence.
How passive acquiescence holds the door
For ill intent to shelter from the rain.
And all experience hath often shown
Mankind will suffer under evil’s weight
Until what’s simply bad gets bad enough
And rallies him to see, to speak, to act.
[ok, we’ll call this the end. a five-act story in blank verse. good job.
