Welcome

This is my playground for poetry written for children with ideas and inspiration for writing your own poems. Come on in. Sit for a spell, have a cup of words to swirl around and make your own cup of poetry. I'm so glad you are here. I hope you'll find the Kingdom of Poetry a fun place to be.

THE FRIDAY DANCE

Toes wiggle.
Ankles rotate.
Knees bend.
Legs kick.
Hips sway.
Waist twist.
Tummy jiggle.
Chest giggle.
Right stretch.
Left stretch.
Face smile,
Big,
All the way.
It's Friday.
Let's Play.

     Have you ever watched football players doing a happy dance when their team makes a touchdown?  It is Friday and I'm feeling especially good to have made it through this week. So, I'm doing my own happy dance.  Your task for today is to think about your own happy dance.  Can you write your dance into a poem?  Sometimes if you make your  body happy moving,  the rest of you will follow.  Have a fun Friday.
