The Fight of Poetry

Richard is a poet. He really came into his own as a writer during this study. You could see his confidence increase as each day he took deeper risks with his writing. I am so proud of him. I loved this poem he wrote on the last day of our study...

The Fight of Poetry

Mr. Brown works so hard
he works and works
We have so many good poems
in my heart
Sometimes people ask me about him
Sometimes he is funning
and sometimes he is not playing
I had a good year
with Mr. Brown
My poems cannot end
We can't stop
I need more time
They are not gone
They are still in my heart
I feel poems with me
When we stop,
poems will still be with me
