Had I asked my son to give me a poem today, I'm sure he would not have complied.
But this afternoon, as he was playing, a poem came to him.
I found him in the school room scribbling as quickly as he could. He told me he was writing a poem, so I left him alone to work.
He came to me when he was finished and read it to me.
Clever! And since I was at the computer, I typed it up for him (and me) to have!
And the author has granted me permission to post it here!
I once saw a fish go
swimming by,
For it had wings, it
could fly.
I went along,
Singing a song,
“Swimming fish, Flying
fish,
I don’t know which!”
