This is my son's poem... it's been selected to be published in a book of youth poetry. I'm pretty proud of him... (his formatting is centered so it looks prettier smiley - winkeye)

Shh...

Shh...
Can you hear the trees?
Whispering and swaying in the wind.
Hear the fish,
gently swimming through the stream.
Hear the birds,
whistling their sweet tune.

Can you hear the salmon,
jumping up the waterfalls?
Hear the robin
flying from perch to perch.
Hear the crickets
getting ready for night to conquer day.

Shh...
Can you hear the silent trees?
Hear the fish
swimming to find shelter for the night.
Hear the birds
tucking in their young.
Hear all the little woodland creatures
scurrying back to their homes.

Dea.. - call me Mrs B!

Teri, I'm seriously impressed!! Nathanial is only 10, isn't he? (I'm assuming Hunter didn't write itsmiley - laugh)

I really like the poem. I'm mostly impressed that a normal, boisterous, skateboarding kid can actually sit long enough to hear those things and remember them enough to write quite eloquently and beautifully about them.

I'd give him smiley - bubbly but he's a bit young, so give him some KoolAid and a smiley - biro and we'll have the booze!!!!

As for bed <> does he think you live in a banana split????smiley - laugh

He does, I'm very impressed... I honestly have no clue where he got the talent from though... I'm as creative as a rock and his father is worse.

On his behalf... smiley - tasmiley - blush
