As you have probably gathered from some of the other exercises, the senses are very useful for creating strong imagery.
First find a lemon, then on the top of separate pages write down these questions:
What does it look like?
What does it smell like?
What does it feel like?
What does it sound like? (sound can be a bit tricky but ping it with your fingers, drop it or cut it, or just hear its silence!)
What does it taste like?
How does it make you feel, does it stir any memories or associations for you?
Now answer the question – fill up as much of each page as you can, the more material you have the easier constructing a poem from it will be!
