A Day Under the Sun

On Kenn Nesbitt's twitter account, I found Laura Perdie Salas' blog, writing the world for kids. Iwrote this poem in comments - 15 words or less describing the photo she has listed on her post: ENCLOSURE [15 WORDS OR LESS POEMS].

A Day Under the Sun

by Becca Brown

Relaxed

Blue skies, critters

Sedate, surreal, serene

Happy humming in my hammock

Sunset    

TIRED

Today we went to the Boston Book Festival! There we saw Matty's favorite author, Anna Dewdney, and enjoyed a guest appearance by Llama Llama himself!

Matty is completely exhausted and I am hoping that time will pass quickly as his bedtime nears.

I am growing as a poet and children's author; and as part of this process, I will be experimenting with various poem structures. Here's a cinquain poem that describes how Matty is right now.

TIRED

By Becca Brown

Toddler

Full day, Fun day

No nap it’s five PM

Biting, Screaming, Crying, Laughing

TIRED!
