As I was walking down the hallway last week, I couldn’t help but notice a fabulous poem about books on Division 1’s bulletin board. The grade 6 poet has kindly allowed me to share it with you.
Books
Books are full of words short or long,
Sometimes there’s a poem or a song,
Non-fiction brings knowledge, whether you want it or not,
for some knowledge brings fear,
And with fear comes distraught.
Fiction brings fantasy, magic , and much more,
With fiction comes imagination,
And perhaps more stories.
But which to choose?
Fiction or non-fiction?
Both can cause joy, excitement, or sorrow,
it all depends on what you choose to borrow,
to read and enjoy.
