You don’t believe me, do you? I think the majority of us, me included, hate writing poetry. But, it’s an easy way for kids to write about nature . . . about anything for that matter. Try this and let me know if I’m a big fat liar or not!! (Pick not, pick not!) Write a list of words down the side of your paper of . . . Everything You See Somewhere Like The Park Or The Backyard Then add verbs to all those things. What are those things doing? Grass grows Trees whisper Flowers bathe Voila! You have written a poem! Would you please share? Inspire us with your writing — or your child’s.
