Easter Fun

Never before

has Easter been so sad

Never before

have we missed wearing

black for Friday mass

white for Sunday fuss

all the hunting

forgotten

changing

our Easter Fun.

 

I had to quickly write a sample poem for my fourth graders. This is what I crafted.

About Me

I am an Elementary school teacher , I taught at an International IB School in Accra, Ghana. I am now teaching in Hanoi. Writing is my passion and I try to write daily, at least in my sentence a day journal, to capture all the blessings around me. I write with groups of writers, such as Teach Write and sometimes Ethical ELA. I also encourage my friends to write , so I created a platform to make that possible -Writing Run.
