April Poetry Month - Day 6

            Continuing with ideas from the book. This time, "The old neighborhood".

             Remember to share:

Tabatha Yeatts has created a link to poems teachers and librarians can print for poetry month, titled "Poetry in The Halls". I'm grateful to be one of the poets!

Jama Rattigan has a post HERE with many poets' goals for April.

The Progressive Poem schedule can be found on the right!

At Grandma’s  

We played mostly in the alleys,

hiding in the shadows of backyard sheds,

running down the dirt track

between the weeds.

I was Dale Evans;

Gary was Roy Rogers.

Fake leather belts held the holsters

for the shiny silver cap guns.

We chased train robbers

just like Dale and Roy.

Pop, Pop came the smell of summer.
