Russ, I can feel another poem coming on. Can I use your line as part of it. (Smiley face)

nice - don’t forgot to mention that the wind whistling between the rocks is the loud complaints of the stinky toddlers who don’t want to eat their peas (not thinking of anyone in particular…).

That is an amazing piece of writing, the descriptions are wonderful, the analogies, and the sentiment, i enjoyed reading this.

Sally, that is an absolutely wonderful poem, I am very proud of you for writing this and presenting it in this manner. I completely agree with the sentiment expressed in your writing and like you, I have a deep love for all members of our family.

I did originally class this as prose/poetry but decided to call it poetry.

Mark is a fabulous teacher. His strength is certainly his ability to involve a whole class in writing creatively. He also involves me in this process which really boosts my self confidence. He quite often asks my opinion on the use of certain words. Tomorrow he will be modelling a completely different genre of poem which I am looking forward to. The kids just love him.

Welcome to the world of blogging!
That’s a touching and creative poem, though rather unconvential, almost halfway between prose and poetry. This Mark must be a good creative writing teacher.
Looking forward to reading your future entries.
