Welcome to Poetry Friday. Today Diane at Random Noodling is hosting.
The books have been found
The devices powered down
it’s time for me
to travel around.

I’ve finished my forty-second year of teaching. I feel like I have miles to go still in teaching.
July is a big travel time for me so I will be taking a blog break.
Poetry Friday is at Beyond LiteracyLink. Thanks, Carol.
A second grader wrote a poem about weeds. His mom, the music teacher, said he came outside to be inspired as she was weeding.
He and I conferred about the shaping.
If I Were a Weed
If I were a weed
most other plants would hate me.
If I were a weed
I would be green or sometimes yellow.
If I were a weed
I would still be something living
like all of you.
If I were a weed
I would feel o’ so hurt.
because you are all slicing me.
If you were a weed
How would you feel?
~Peter L.
2nd grade
I just love the last line of this poem.
Happy Friday.
Happy Poetry.
