I got to make a special visit to the 2nd grade today. They’ve clearly had an amazing teacher with Ms. Leslie and they were very enthusiastic about poetry. We read Nikki Giovanni’s “Knoxville, TN” and wrote poems about our favorite seasons. Here is one we wrote together!

Summer

Summer makes me fill up
with happiness. It feels
like clouds picking me up. In summer
I feel like the water is making me flow into
the sky. I feel like I can fly.
