POEM SHARE: Children's poets from across the globe presenting their favorite poems for Poetry Month and beyond!
Road trip time! Travel to Seattle, Washington with Michelle Schaub as she shares her poem "Wishes" about a unique cedar tree that holds thousands and thousands of wishes.
You can find "Wishes" in Michelle's poetry collection Leafy Landmarks: Travels with Trees, illustrated by Anne Lambelet. It's a family road trip around the US to visit famous and historic trees, including the tallest trees in the world, the oldest trees in the world, and even trees that traveled to the moon as seeds! Each tree poem uses a different poetry form.
Do you have a favorite tree? Use one of the templates in the free Leafy Landmarks Educators' Guide to write a poem about it!
Happy poetry reading and writing, everyone!
So nicely done, Michelle.
