When I Write Poetry
by Christopher , grade 4
 

When I write poetry,
I write with imagination,
Making up new words
Never heard before.

It feels different
Than writing school things,
No stress, no rules,
Carefree.

I write about dinosaurs,
Animals, distant places,
And sometimes,
About me.

I'll only stop writing
If I write every poem
There is to be written
Inside of me,
And then I'll go looking
To write even
More.
