Kyler’s April Post:

I listened to “Cotton Candy” by Edward Hirsch. I liked how he made it sound like you were living inside the poem. He explained the walk that he took with his grandpa, and the cotton candy he ate while crossing the old, brown bridge.  It was very well written and thought out and it sounded like he actually cared to write about it.

Biking

From mountains to roads

I pass the little stream

The nature talks in code

Look how the water gleams

I grab a quick snack

wipe the sweat of my head

find the nearest track

look at the mountains, oh so red

I love to ride my bike

it makes me feel so happy

My sister has a little trike

it is kinda crappy

The feeling of the ride

the adrenaline rush you get

I’ve never been so alive

There is no stopping yet
