Majestic Nature

Cooper worked all last week on a poem for his Language Arts class. He wrote and scrutinized and wrote and edited and wrote. Then, with a page full of poetry, he cut it down to three stanzas and turned it in. Here's his final product:

Majestic Nature

By Cooper

Heaven above the soaring peaks 

Topped with a white flaky blanket 

Pointed masses of majesty

Over a readying banquet

Of fruits and nuts, such wonderful foods

While creatures roam in Nature's house 

A brilliant band of all sorts of things

From cougars to deer to rough feathered grouse

Babbling brooks plash on rocks

While these summits hold sheep with white fleece 

And where there always is happiness

And creatures roaming with peace

The English major who doesn’t compliment awful attempts at poetry says, “This is really good!”
