My little brother, Davy wrote a poem about springtime… He gave me permission to share it with you.
“In the Spring” by David Aiken Codington, 8 years old
In the spring
We have fun in the sun,
And showers bring flowers,
And the leaves grow on the trees.
When we play hide and seek
We hide under the slide.
We talk on our walk,
And we pass in the grass.
We also have pests that build nests
On our trees that have bees,
And our deck is a wreck, too!!
I just love spring, don’t you?

This is too cute. And your little brother is too. This sounds like me when I was younger. ;)

Philip… why didn’t you hire that adorable young poet to help you with your sonnet? He has talent. I do believe I felt the whisper of a spring breeze as I read his words! Kudos to Davy!

Oh Davy :) Glad I heard it from the horse’s mouth… it doesn’t really have the same cute effect here online. And when are you gonna get to that deck?! ;)
