Something prompted me to try writing a welcome poem for my 7th grade advisees (refer to earlier post saying I wasn't feeling inspired) and it came rather easily, thanks in part to an online rhyming dictionary. I thought I'd share my poem with you.
Another summer has flown by,
I hope yours was a blast.
I read, crocheted, and volunteered.
Now time for school, AT LAST!
In 7th grade you'll make new friends,
Take mini-courses too.
Clubs will let you learn new skills
Like knitting and kung fu
(probably not kung fu but I needed a rhyme)
To help you finish The Graveyard Book
I made this bookmark for you.
It reminds me of a plumeria flower
From my home in Honolulu.
On August 31st we'll meet
For orientation and lunch.
Be ready for a year of FUN
Of that you'll have a bunch!
Corny, I know! But my poems usually are.
A hui ho
