Today my daughter asked me, "what is my color?" Without too much thinking I said blue. A nice light blue. Here assignment on day three of the seventh grade is to write a poem about her color. I love to write about my children and take teacher assignments as an opportunity to do that. I plan to do this more often this school year as I chronicle the adventures of Lizzy, grade seven and Drew, grade five. Maybe an adventure about me will pop up once in a while but it is certainly time to devote more time to writing--I'm sure my child's ELA teachers will agree!

Sky Blue, Lizzy Lou
Fall deeply for this child of sky blue
As she certainly will do the same for you.
Curiosity abounds in her expansive mind
Searching and seeking until her passion she finds.
Dreaming and wishing have no end
A comforting hand she will always extend.
Like a dandelion floating through the air
Her sky blue love is always there.
If you look into her sky blue eyes
It is the heart of her soul you will recognize.
