Kid haikus are awesome
Tonight we wrote haikus, the kids and I. We picked words at random out of National Geographic to use as the theme of each poem. E. is 7 years old, and I. is 9. Here they are in all their glory:
LAND
such a big place, earth.
land is always evrywhere.
never stops, no no.
- [by E.]
URBAN
tall, tall buildings here.
evry place, evrywhere such
changes can now come
- [by E.]
There are buildings there.
It is so extremely big!
It’s the city.
- [by I.]
grass is great, the green
expanse and air, blue skies, but
smog is comforting.
- [by me]
