What We Love

Last week, we focused on hobbies or activities that we love to do. Then, we created a poem using our senses to describe that activity.

Sketch

by Isabella Guerra

Sketching sounds like silence. 

All of the noise in my head goes away. 

Silence.
Sketching feels like I don't have to worry about anything else around me. 

I can just float into another world.
Sketching is a whiff of flowers in the spring with that touch of a fresh breeze.
Sketching is a glare of someone that doesn't have to act like something that they are not.
Sketching feels like the pencil in my hand has all of the ink to sketch me a thousand sketches.

First Meeting: Amazing Poets Already!

During our first meeting with had a little fun creating poetry from a list of words we all brainstormed together.  Here are a couple of poems from club members.

Perfectly lazy.

Back to School

by Max Powers & Zach Rubin

6th Grade

Reading books in class

Walking to the bus

Student Council club

Homework paranoia

Portables are a prison

Rain is terrible

Birds chirp & bugs buzz

Test grades are on Pinnacle

Notebooks are too large

Sleep is my spirit

It's never too late to express yourself with words!
