Mom has been teaching poetry at school. She has been using Love that Dog, by Sharon Creech. It is a great book for introducing different styles of poetry to all ages.
Inspired by her students' work and the poem dog, but Valerie Worth.
Pug
By the fireplace
curly tail waggling,
chin between his paws.
Big, brown eyes
Gaze with love
At the snack I am eating.
Gets bored
Snorfs, sighs
Snores
In the flickering
firelight.
