Happy Poetry Month!

I'm taking the advice from the poet who has given so much to help us all, including students and teachers, write poetry. I'll be moving from A to Z, obviously needing to combine a few to make it all come out to 30. FYI—Sometimes, Paul Janeczko offers a prompt to write a poem that begins with the specific alphabet letter instead of a poem type. It will be fun to be open to writing in all kinds of ways!

This is Day 16, a word that starts with P - I chose "Performance". Can you imagine?
Performance of a Showoff
The centipede, without dismay
demands applause in a special way.
Its many legs help it refine
the one-bug musical chorus line.

How fun! Just this morning I captured a scutigeromorpha (aka House Centipede) and put it out in the front flower bed. I should have given it a round of applause, but really, I wanted one for myself because I managed to catch the quick-running little bugger!
