We studied couplets today in creative writing. Big I's assignment was a short poem. The first line was given and he was to finish the poem. Let me just say that twelve year old boys are not thrilled about writing poems. Especially poems about butterflies. Anyway, he persevered and here is the result:
Butterflies fluttering through the air
Land on dogs' noses as if on a dare,
Land gently on flowers without a care,
Folding their wings as if in prayer.
Robert Frost has nothing on this kid!
I am at the half-way mark with the "30 posts, 30 days" challenge and thanks to Big I, I had something worth posting today.
Thanks for reading, Rosie.
