  11. Concrete Poems • Shape poems are made up of words that have been placed in such a way that they make the shape of an object and also use words to describe the object. • Start by making a simple outline of the shape or object ( an animal, a football, a fruit etc.) large enough to fill a piece of paper. • Then brainstorm a minimum of ten words and phrases that describe the shape. List action and feeling words as well. Next, place a piece of paper over the shape and decide where your words are going to be placed so that they outline your shape but also fit well together. • Separate words and phrases with commas. • Work in progress.
