A few weeks ago our family celebrated Stella’s second birthday by going to the Audubon Zoo in New Orleans. After a full day of rain on Saturday, Sunday dawned clear and mild. A perfect day for the zoo. The Audubon Zoo has a signature fountain as you walk in. Some of the sprays create an arch over the walkway. It is a place where families meet to take a photo.
I’ll be writing later with my students and will add my poem here. Please consider writing today and supporting other writers with encouragement.
Avalyn and I wrote together using Rose’s poem as a model. Thanks, Rose.
Meet Me at the Waterfall
Meet me
at the waterfall
where elephants
play,
where penguins wiggle
toes
in a cold, icy sleigh.Meet me
Mrs. Simon and Avalyn (3rd grade)
at the waterfall
where my dreams
come true,
and if you make a wish,
yours
will come true, too.
