Poetry Competition

Both our school boys represented their classes in the school poetry competition today.  We were so proud of them.  AJ was the only boy in 2nd grade and Ty was 1 of 3 kids in kindergarten.


AJ's poem; My hat is full of rabbits by Ken Nesbitt

My hat is full of rabbits.
My cape is full of doves.
A playing card is up my sleeve,
and some are in my gloves.

A wand is in my pocket
with handkerchiefs and flowers.
My coat has things like ropes and rings
with mystifying powers.

I have my staff and juggling clubs,
my mirrors, cups, and dice,
my crystal ball, my smoke machine,
and fancy dancing mice.

I'm ready for my magic show.
There's just one problem here...
My elephant is on my lap
and will not disappear.
Ty's Poem
My Lunch by Ken Nesbitt
A candy bar.
A piece of cake.
A lollipop.
A chocolate shake.

A jelly donut.
Chocolate chips.
Some gummy worms
and licorice whips.

A candy cane.
A lemon drop.
Some bubblegum
and soda pop.

Vanilla wafers.
Cherry punch.
My mom slept in
while I made lunch.
