I wrote and illustrated 2 books in Elementary school (maybe one more). Today I read them both. One was titled “My famous Poems” the other “My Best Poems”… I always had trouble with titles.

Anyways, it’s nice to see I loved writing way back then. Here are two of my poems from the book “My Best Poems” which I wrote in my second grade class.

The Man with Gigantic Feet

Once there was a man with smelly big feet.

He liked to eat smelly meat.

He had a very long head.

He liked to eat bread.

That’s why he is not very neat.

Halloween

When it is Halloween it is dark.

Every dog in the city can bark.

You can be a gigantic ghost.

You might not even get a small post[not sure what I meant here].

Of course you can’t dress up as a house.

But you can dress up as a small mouse.

*I know, I know… it’s hard to believe I was only 7 when I wrote these masterpieces.

All jokes aside though, I almost teared up when I read these and saw all the pictures. I would love to do this with my 2nd graders when I become a teacher.
