To Mia Ankeney (age 10) Aeron McConnell (age 11)and Abby McConnell (age 9) for winning in the Wordfest/Blue Ridge Parkway Inaugural Poetry Contest, Spring 2010! To the great folks who turned out for the May 8, 2010 Poetry Scavenger Hunt at the Thomas Wolfe House. Families went searching for poetry and here's a couple examples of what they found: The Coffee Shop By Austin Wood with help from Lila Wells May 8, 2010 Mmm, coffee and brownies, With sausage thrown in: Three of the best smells. Sour lemonade In a cold, icy glass, Conversation between families All around. The juicer, like a lawnmower, Cuts greens into a glass For the lady in the Yellow and orange flowered pants. The coffee maker gargles, Rich and dark, Into a warm mug, Bringing good breakfast memories. The kaleidoscope floor makes me happy. Silver Wheel (By Noah, Eliana, Mira and Jeremy Phillips) Wind in leaves, tractor buzz Left face sunny, right face breeze In the middle of warm and cold The wind is blowing my shirt around making it a bubble on my chest At the store There's an old lady singing breezy songs The cat candy Tastes like a fruit rocking horse and a slide I see the Big Dipper every day One side warm on the other cold I wanna hear just one thing Am I still your sweet one? And what else? Fortune: Success is ten percent perspiration and ninety percent deodorant! |
