This activity requires personal information concerning yourself, which is why I can only provide you with an example and tips on how to do it. When it comes to the first prompt, an example of a poem would be:
I come from where the coconut trees
Swing their tall bodies to touch the sun;
Where the ocean splashes softly,
Gently crashing against yellow sand
And grayish rock. I come from where
The blue sky is warm, the heat is a
Permanent state, the tropicality is but
A quality of the people.
