Echo Poems
Taught by Sarah Dawn Johnson
Ages 15-18, 15 students
Monday, August 2, 2010: 6-7:30pm (one session)
Have you ever been sitting with your copy of The Best American Poetry, The Wasteland, Collected Works of Emily
Dickinson or The Outlaw Bible of American Poetry and thought, “I could do that better”? Maybe not, but I bet you've
thought “I've felt just like that!” or “I could write that story!” And here is your chance. We will be looking at great poems,
famous and not so famous, examining what they say and do, then we'll take our own swing at them.
Sarah Dawn's first poem was about a dove in the 1st grade, she's been writing ever since. She works a
grownup job by day and volunteers with 826, writes, does yoga and cooks by night. Soon she will be embarking to achieve her
dream of being a High School teacher.
