Poetry Night

On the evening of February 13th, my class read original poetry on stage at our local theater, Foundry Hall.  Sometimes, when the stars align, nature study becomes poetry.  Below are a few photos and some of the poems that were shared.  Twenty-seven of our twenty-eight students attended the event with slightly over 200 people encouraging us!  After the readings, students were on hand to autograph their published poems.  It was a lovely evening.  A big thanks to the wonderful people at Foundry Hall for sponsoring this event!

I Am Autumn

By Jada

 

I feel colder air coming.

I smell pumpkin pie people are making.

I wonder why children jump in my leaves.

I see geese flying south.

I feel the grass dying.

I am Autumn.

I Am Ruby-Throated Hummingbird

By Kalin

 

I am small

I suck the nectar from flowers.

I spend my winter in Mexico.

I love the sweet smell of woodlands.

I love the summer days.

I am the bright color of roses.

I have greens of all kinds.

I am Ruby-Throated Hummingbird.
