Poetry Comics Month, Day 6: Opposites

This weekend's poetry comics were inspired by the work of poet Richard Wilbur, who wrote three books of opposite poems. Draw your own poetry comics and share them on social media with the hashtag #poetrycomicsmonth. I've seen some great reader contributions so far!
