School Daze Poem by Frances Macaulay Forde

butterfly jumper
thai yellow shoes

rhythm and rhyme
gave us the clues

words with a reason
passionate hues

snapshots of feeling
images in blue

it takes real talent
possessed by so few

to write something cool
in a couplet or two

or a japanese tanka
french cinquain or haiku
