Hour 6- World View

I take a big step to find the edge of the world.

I look down.

I look to my left.

I see a magnificent waterfall

It is cascading down to bathe the stars,

Splashing droplets into galaxies

Creating rainbows in the moonlight.

I look to my right.

I see a mountain range on the edge

A boulder tumbling

     Down

          Down

               Down

To alight onto the trunk of an elephant below

That is riding on the back of a slow moving turtle.

Skipping, I make my way around the edge

Taking my time, enjoying the view.

Along the way I meet new friends

Learn new things

Try new foods

Take in everything.

Even if the earth is flat,

I plan on being well-rounded.

  1. I loved everything about this poem! You incorporated so many elements. You have the strong imagery and flow plus you have the visual representation of going down the mountain. The last two lines made me smile:
    ” Even if the earth is flat,
    I plan on being well-rounded.”

    Wonderful Deanna!!!!
