My poem, "If Great Lakes," was read and emulated by 285 public school fifth graders from Chicago.

She became upset because we had no more cheese.

  1. Yo Zachary, Here are more posts, these ones from third graders. The poems are written in a thirty minute session, so I leave them unedited, as many amusing mispellings occur.

    All the best, Tyler

    Then I would become an ocean
    I would become an ocean
    That gets its water beep.
    I would become a fish
    But also try for protection.

    So good.
