Writers in the Schools
The Writers in the Schools program (Houston) sent me this lovely poem by 4th grader Cody:
Ink Heart
What the night hides:/
a stranger in the dark,/
fire and stars, /
snakes and thorns,/
a house full of books,/
a night full of words,/
the lion's den,/
going farther south.
Love that last enigmatic line, Cody!
Folks, were you writing like that in 4th grade? I certainly wasn't!

That's amazing.....That's really good! I wrote a poem kind of like that in 6th grade and my teachers all wondered where it came from. :D Very nice poem Cody!
