Options:

1) write an uplifting, hope ful, shout for joy poem ( make Darien actually shout for joy) Vivid and spilling with emotion. let's get some true, rising phoenix poetry!

2) Write about what made you hold on in the strangest, scariest, saddest, most depressing time(s)? What kept you going? Give some clear description for a visual within the text.

3) Do you enjoy anime? Are you an Inyuyasha fan? Good! So is Darien! Write an Inyuyasha fan-fic (miroku and sonjo should be in it mostly *hint hint* ) An under-toned meaning and core would be excellent (No prose or stories! NO - poems, please, poems!)

4) Linkin Park, Depeche Mode, Cold and Evanescence are all much-favored bands of Darien. Write an awesome Lyric based on one of those bands songs ( state in Authors comments which band and song)  don't DONT don't re-do the song, just be inspired.

5) Let's get some good, real, sweet and savory friendship poems ( NOT sappy or plain) Anything from your heart about one of your amazing friends. it can be  a thank you , an " I'm so undeniably sorry" or a "remember when..." or just a "Hey, you rock!" poem. Sweet and savory poems

try to circulate, hand out some critiques and comments between the entries ( you'll make points)

DON'Ts

No adult themed or erotic poetry...she's 14! and it's sick!
stay off the swearing, poets
step aside from bloody, gory, abuse content, please. You don't bring knives to the PARTAY, ok? Ok!
Don't write an "Ode to Darien" if you don't really know her all that well. That's just ignorant.
