I live in Seattle

Another poem by April Joy.  She was told to write a poem about where she lives.

I live in Seattle
For it is very hot now
Where the sun grows bigger
(And me)
If only you could live with me
For it is wonderful in Seattle.


Amazing, yes?  I added appropriate punctuation, but everything else she did on her own.  Here's what the original looked like:

A poem by April

The sky is light
The day is bright
The moon shines
In the night.
And children play
Throughout the day
At night they sleep
Without a peep

By April Joy Burgess, 2012

Horns

April proudly showed me a small cut on her hand that she got from "horns" on the bushes. 

To pipe...

"Dad is going to sit outside and 'pipe'."
