Try\u00a0this: Write down what you see when you go outside for recess or when you go for a walk in the woods over the weekend. Write down your observations on paper (or better yet, record them with a camera). Depending on the season, you might get observations of nature like<br \/>\nthe following:<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p>leaves blowing in the wind<br \/>\nsnow piling up on unused doors<br \/>\nducks swimming in a pond during a rainstorm<br \/>\nthe first buds on tree branches in your backyard<br \/>\nthe first daffodil poking it&#8217;s head through the dirt<br \/>\nhungry bees buzzing around a flower garden<\/p>\n<p>Next, try to find two images that create a striking impression when connected and write<br \/>\nthem down. You might get something like this:<\/p>\n<p>After it started to rain, fishermen steered their boats toward the shore. Then, I saw a family<br \/>\nof ducks waddle over to the lake and swim across.<\/p>\n<p>OK, now you have to pare the sentence down so it still describes the scene while inviting<br \/>\nthe reader to marvel at nature. How&#8217;s this?<\/p>\n<p>Sudden spring storm-<br \/>\na family of ducks paddles<br \/>\naround the deserted lake.<\/p>\n<p>(Copyright 1999 by Bruce Lansky, reprinted with his permission)<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"title w-660 black\">Haiku (7, 11, 16, 18 &amp;
