i've been forgetting to post these. here's a collection of poems by brent. it makes me so happy to see a student express his creativity. these are the edited version. i hope you enjoy them as much as i do.
A Market Play
watermelons for sale!
watermelons for sale!
carrots for sale!
carrots for sale!
very noisy
the market is noisy everyday
noisy sounds
Rainy Day
if rain is coming, if rain is coming
will i see a snail with it's small house?
will i see a long jumper or a green frog?
no, no, no
i will see a butterfly
hiding behind the petals.
Goldfish
goldfish
how do yo sleep?
are you swimming, standing up, or laying down?
do you drink or not?
i ask them.
Birthday Present
what is my birthday present?
i can't wait.
mom and dad know what i want.
i know what mom and dad think, too.
The Scarecrow
everyday
all the time
the sparrow flies away
the magpie flies away
everyday the scarecrow stands
and sees them when they come.
Watermelon
watermelon, watermelon
one bite
two bites
big seeds, spit and play
spit the seeds out and play
watermelon, watermelon
that's all of them for now. more to come. innocence is a great thing.
be well...

I like the spit and play in the last watermelon poem. We used to have spitting contests during watermelon season. Funny.
