My 6th graders are writing poetry during this holiday season. One of my students asked me if I ever write poetry for fun. I had to answer honestly---no—I don’t. I am not sure why. I do write poetry on demand when I need a mentor text to share with my students for modeling purposes, but to simply sit down with the intention to write poetry---not so much. So here it goes…Too busy to blog---
Too weary to blog---
Too lethargic to blog---
Too uninspired to blog---
Blogged out---
For now.
OK—so there is a reason I don’t write poetry.
This I know for sure…

I don't write poetry. I can and have been told that it is good. But unless I am taking a class or someone uses poetry for the writing group exercise, it just doesn't trip my trigger.
