Jordan, a second grader, gives us the new Work of the Day over at the Writers in the School blog:
I Am the Sky
I am the sky, I never die.
I fly so free, and I fly so high.
I never stop even if I try.
I love watching people go by.
I am so big, I can touch space.
I am up, up, and up over the clouds.
My pals Cloud and Sun are always with me.
I float all the time.
I am very strong.
I can be a multi-colored sky.
I am very friendly, “Hi!”
I help carry air from place to place.
I have the best view of the world.
I can sometimes dive into the deep blue sky,
But I can’t speak words.
I see lots of birds.
I am the sky!
I like my job.
interesting to see a second grader looking at the sky as an entity having a job. Kind of scary that everything is so work oriented these days that it would occur at such a young age though.
