MY DAUGHTER'S POEMS
I am so proud of both of my children. Please take time and read the beautiful things that are written by one of my kiddos. We can learn so much from our children. You need to lend your ear and listen.

There Once Was a Girl Writing a Poem
There once was girl writing a poem
The one about herself
She wanted so bad to be someone
Her hair was always curled
Her heart was always hurt
She makes mistakes and scratches them out
The pages continue, she's trying to find herself and what she's about
There's holes in between the numerous verbs
Suddenly her poem curves and misses the edge
It's ripped in half and started over completely
Just to find more holes and more half written rhymes
But nothing screams "Hello, I'm here to give you the signs!"
So the poems longer than when she started
She discovers that it doesn't work, she's just broken hearted
She's weighing down on herself
It only makes it that much harder
When she feels so low she writes it down on paper
When she finds herself happy, she'll write it down neatly
Eventually, she finds
There's no more holes
The verbs are just fine
And, the poem, it even rhymes
