Think of the format of a food recipe. First there is a list of

ingredients together, and finally the cooking procedures and cooking time.

Recipe Poem: How to Make a Morning
By Elaine Magliaro
Melt a galaxy of stars
in a large blue bowl.
Knead the golden sun
and let it rise in the East.
Spread the sky
with a layer of lemony light.
Blend together
until brimming with brightness.
Fold in dewdrops.
Sprinkle with songbirds.
Garnish with a chorus
of cock-a-doodle-doos.
Set out on a platter at dawn
and enjoy.
