Thinking about how your character experiences different emotions is very useful for fiction writers. Pick an emotion from the list below (or another of your choosing!) and write from your character's perspective as if s/he feels that way.
If you prefer, you could use this as a journaling prompt, and write a brief reflection about a time you personally experienced this emotion.
You could also choose to create a poem that conveys this emotion.
Here are some emotions to work with:

ANGUISH
JOY
HEARTBREAK
SHOCK
FRUSTRATION
PLEASURE
CURIOSITY
DISBELIEF
If you're up for an extra special challenge, now try writing a scene (or poem) in which the main character (or the speaker, in a poem) transitions from:
BOREDOM to CONFUSION
HAPPINESS to DISTRESS
ANGER to CALM
