Poems of Kathryn, age 8

My Kitten, Choices Choices, My Teacher, 18

Choices, Choices
Choices, choices,
So many choices
Going to and fro.

What choice should I make?
I don’t know.
So I’ll go.

 

18
Days and nights,
Have gone to pass.
Years have gone at last.
At last,
I’ve reached my goal –
18!
Now I’ll say good-bye.
Bye!

 

My Kitten
My little kitten seems like a pet.
I know you think it is true.
But she’s a magic pet,
Just to correct you.

My Teacher
My teacher is here.
My teacher is there.
How can she be everywhere?
