What If?

What if dolphins were scary and white sharks were cuddly?
What if pizza was gross and fried liver was yummy?
What if school were a blast and recess was boring?
What if daddy was silent and the bunny was snoring?
What if water was sticky and not sticky was glue?
What if we were apart? I'd remain close to you.

Daly Screams

If I were a fittle lish
I'd dim and dim all sway
I'd sask near the burface
and sase chalemanders
But eat horms off a wook?
there's wo nay.

Chipper 2

Chipper is a dilly sog
Who cases little chows
He funs them up and down the rield
He duns them up and rown
I tell him rat it isn't thight
He's off in beaps and lounds
He'll cheep on kasing little cows
'Till the cig bows come around

Breakers

Rolling sea foam green
turning instantly to white
when they meet shore rocks

Smartboard

Super input
Machine really.
Although it's cool
Really spectacular things happen when it's
Taught smart things
By an enthusiastic teacher
Or other creative educator
And or engaged student
Revolutionary thinking
Develops

Smart

Smartboard
as smart
as the person
who writes on it.
Word

Fish

Fun under sun in the water, not sand
In the water is best, in it my life is grand
Super fast lightning through water by you
Ha ha laughs the tuna, it's just what I do.

Spring Moss

[skip]
Cold, hard granite place
little sun even at noon
yet still, green is green
waiting for the warmth that comes
lifeless leaf gives shelter still

Forsythia

[skip]
Forthysia
green, young
waiting to bust out
to explode in bright vibrant color
to become the harbinger of warm summer fun.
now?

Outside

Outside
where wild things are
dust, sun, wind, snow and rain
dare I play where bugs crawl and fly
I do

Line

Line
straight, quiet
focusing, thinking, walking
always a thought before action
