  5. The Daily Poem and Freewrite • Why freewrite? • Why a daily poem?“The chief fault in your style is its lack of distinction—something which is inclined to grow with the years. . . . and the only way to increase it is to cultivate your own garden. And the only thing that will help you is poetry which is the most concentrated form of style.”—F. Scott Fitzgerald, in a letter to his daughter, July 1940

  6. Until I Saw the Sea Until I saw the sea I did not know that wind could wrinkle water so. I never knew that sun could splinter a whole sea of blue. Nor did I know before a sea breathes in and out upon a shore. Lilian Moore
