Before you finish your poem REMEMBER

REMEMBER:  The structure of a poem looks different than a paragraph.

It should look like this (with stanzas and line breaks):

Hug O' War

I will not play at tug o' war.
     I'd rather play at hug o' war,
Where everyone hugs
     Instead of tugs,


Where everyone giggles
   And rolls on the rug,

Where everyone kisses,
   And everyone grins,
   And everyone cuddles,
   And everyone wins.


It shouldn't look like this (a big lump of writing):

I will not play at tug o' war.  I'd rather play at hug o' war,where everyone hugs Instead of tugs.  Where everyone giggles and rolls on the rug, where everyone kisses, and everyone grins, and everyone cuddles, and everyone wins.


ALSO Title it what you'd like: and make sure to write your name on it.
