After reading Ken Nesbitt's poems, what kind of poem are you inspired to write?
Here is what came to my mind after I read Ken's food poems. This poem is based on a memory of my sister and green beans.
Dinner Table
by Kelly Flasha
Hide under the dinner table
Green beans that she was unable
To eat for they were much too tough.
Who would make kids eat such stuff?
Happy writing,
Mrs. F.

ReplyDeleteHave you ever met him?
Have you ever seen him?
OR
have you ever read one of his poets
Is he nice?
OR
Is he mean?
Do you know?
Because I do not
Is he tall?
OR
Is he short?
Do you know?
Because I do not
But there is one thing I do know and that is he is very
CREATIVE
Ken nesbitt
ReplyDeleteis a poet
and often rhymes a bit
and sometimes his poems,
will involve spit!
Some People say my heart’s too small
ReplyDeleteThat maybe my ego’s too tall
Too often I suggest the mall
It’s just that I’m turning sixteen
seventeen

looks like a werewolf
put him in a cage
Ken rymes in his poems
ReplyDeletehe also is super funny
